Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Nutch Wiki" for change notification.
The "FirstReport" page has been changed by LewisJohnMcgibbney: https://wiki.apache.org/nutch/FirstReport?action=diff&rev1=2&rev2=3 === Future Actions === + '''To be conpleted by student''' + === Mentors Comments === + It has been some three weeks now since I am aware that Fjodor actually began coding on this project. He stated that he would be delaying the start due to exam committments and I was fine with this. My main concern was what would be the tangible outcome for mid-term reporting based upon how quickly he could get upt-to-speed with the rather complex nature of Nutch 2.X. + As far as I am concerned, and based on his initial report as above, I am pretty satisfied that he understands the high level view of Nutch 2.X including the layers of Nutch as the Hadoop-based application, Gora as the storage abstraction later, HBase (amongst others) as the WebPage/Host storage mechanism, Solr as the indexing server and Hadoop as the framework for running Nutch jobs on. This in itself takes most people much longer than 3 weeks so I am reasonablty happy with his progress. + I would like Fjodor to be contributing his documentation at regular intervals to '''THIS WIKI''', this serves a number of purposes + * It means I can track his progress between reporting sessions + * It means we have one place where all of the documentation resides + * It means we can direct GSoC admins, etc here when reporting comes around + * It means that future students and/or anyone else can find how the project went + * ... etc + I would like to see Fjodor take action on the following items + * If possible create a graphic of the REST API as it exists in his proposed patch for [[https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-1769|NUTCH-1769 API refactoring]] this should only include the information included in his above commentary on the topic. + * Provide links to the '''HTML Prototype''', I have not seen any of this code and therefore cannot assert that progress has been made as described above. + * Provide links/patches for the '''application skeleton''' as stated above... I have yet to see any code. + All in all, I am happy that Fjodor is being resourceful e.g. approaching Java developers to get help, etc. + Fjodor has been a quiet student and has not asked a lot of me so far, if he wishes to change this moving forward then I am very willing to engage more with him in his on going work. + + Signed: Lewis John McGibbney (lewismc) +
