-----------------------------------------------------------------

The result of {{conf.getStrings("http.robot.rules.whitelist")}} needs to be 
checked for null which is returned if the property is not defined or is empty. 
That's the default and is used for the tests.
[~gostep], can you add this check? And don't forget to mention this issue in 
CHANGES.txt. Thanks!

> The {{http.robot.rules.whitelist}} 
> ([NUTCH-1927|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-1927]) configuration 
> parameter allows to specify a comma separated list of hostnames or IP 
> addresses to ignore robot rules parsing for.
> Adding support for wildcard in {{http.robot.rules.whitelist}} could be very 
> useful and simplify the configuration, for example, if we need to give many 
> hostnames/addresses. Here is an example:
> {noformat}
> <name>http.robot.rules.whitelist</name>
>   <value>*.sample.com</value>
>   <description>Comma separated list of hostnames or IP addresses to ignore 
>   robot rules parsing for. Use with care and only if you are explicitly
>   allowed by the site owner to ignore the site's robots.txt!
>   </description>
> </property>
> {noformat}
