Thanks, @TamimEhsan! To add more details to @lewismc's comment: the "Metadata" class implements "Writable" because it needs to be serialized when data is stored in the CrawlDb and in segments, or when Nutch is run on a Hadoop cluster and data is exchanged between distributed tasks. Ideally, serialization is backward-compatible, that is Metadata written before this change is readable afterwards. > make any comments on the Jira ticket If you want, you can request a Apache Jira account [here](https://selfserve.apache.org/jira-account.html). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
