Hi Evert, Thanks. Velocity would be fine, but the big issue is that I don't know Velocity, and I know Wicket.
The great part about Wicket is that it's pure XHTML + Java code. No config, no anything in-between. So if you understand the component model of widgets behind the scenes, and understand HTML, JS and CSS, you can easily maintain a Wicket web app. And as a Nutch PMC member there's one person here at least (me) who's willing to maintain and steward such a web app. So we're in business!

The jsp version has become a mess and is currently almost not s supportable anymore. Would velocity be a good alternative? It is very good with Solr Facets and also fits into any CMS. ________________________________________ Evert Wagenaar [email protected] +31 653 606 293 ________________________________________ From: kiran chitturi <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, March 23, 2013 9:36 PM Subject: Re: GSOC 2013 project: Apache-Wicket based Nutch webapp Thank you Chris for your interest.

Great job and I would love a link to your thesis (or even seeing the work in progress) if you are willing to share and have the time. Good plane reading material for me and congrats again.

I am planning to graduate with Masters degree in Computer Science from Virginia Tech University and my advisor is Dr.Fox. My thesis work mostly relates to building search engine for the 10TB crises event data that we have collected over last three years. The data is collected using Internet Archive crawler (Archive-it) and I am indexing data using LucidWorks Big Data Software. The process also involves finding more metadata and clustering. All of this work is related to 'Crisis, Tragedy and Recovery Network Project (CTRnet)' (www.ctrnet.net <http://www.ctrnet.net/>) My thesis, library work and Nutch are all closely related. It has been a great learning experience so far :) On Sat, Mar 23, 2013 at 12:23 PM, Mattmann, Chris A (388J) <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Kiran, Awesome that works fine for me! Happy to have you contribute, and whether you are a formal mentor or not, if we get a GSoC 2013 student for this you can help me, Lewis, (and others) shepherd it in! Thanks man and congrats on graduating soon! Where are you graduating from and in what subject?

I have discussed with Lewis previously about this, and it wouldn't be ideal for me to be a GSoc 2013 student as I can't devote my full-time work on this. However, I will be very happy to work on this in my free time. This is something I am interested in for long time and I would try to contribute in anyway possible. Thank you, Kiran.

I'm privy to Apache CXF, but I haven't done anything with it, and Andrzej did an awesome job using Restlet, so we've got Reslet for now. If you are interested in documenting the services, then awesome! Do you want to be a GSoC 2013 student, and are you interested in this project?

First, to start with this I want to do well documentation of the Nutch REST API. What is the status of Rest API ? Does it need any fixes and working examples ? Hopefully my start would be helpful and it be soon. Thanks for opening up the issue. Regards, kIran.

I'm willing to mentor it, since I love Wicket, and I'm willing to maintain the result as a Nutch committer. If NUTCH-841 doesn't get selected, I'll start implementing it this summer if no one beats me to it.
