Mingfai Ma commented on DROIDS-96:
----------------------------------
I think I'm the person who created the crawler module in around a year ago.
there are several issues with the module that it should *not* be added to the
parent module (and should be removed from this project)
1. the initial code and concepts are originated from Droids' crawler code, but
i made too many changes at that time that I couldn't make the module to use the
parent/droids-core module (unless I also make significant change to droids-core
...). so, the module is actually a standalone one, works independent of droids.
2. i believe i'm the only one who has committed code for that module, and the
last update is around a year ago. I actually keep developing the crawler but
not based on that droids-crawler trunk. In other words, the droids-crawler
module in svn is unmaintained now.
for the two reasons above, i think the module in svn should be obsoleted /
deleted.
I don't mind to release the latest crawler code i use if anyone may use it, but
it still has the old problem that it doesn't use droids-core. I think if it
doesn't use droids-core, it can't be called a droids-crawler.
