Hi user@ and dev@, As part of the Nutch Google Summer of Code effort this year, Omkar Reddy and I have been working persistently throughout the summer months on the Hadoop MapReduce API upgrade e.g. NUTCH-2375 Upgrade the code base from org.apache.hadoop.mapred to org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce [0]. We believe we are now at a stage where this code is stable and should be opened for widespread community review. It is a large patch, so the more eyes we can get on this the better. Upgrading MapReduce API usage in Nutch is long overdue so this will be a significant addition to the Nutch project.
The proposed pull request can be found at [1]. Please report any outcomes back to the issue tracker at [1]. Thank you Lewis N.B. Please note that the official version of Apache Hadoop supported by Nutch master branch at this time is 2.7.2.
