Yeah, I agree this would be a good thing and would make sense in the near future. I think we should iron out the TLP stuff first and we should let Nutch discuss what it's plans for modularization are. But yeah, I'm definitely open to discussing it. I think we sometimes also forget about the fact that we can always SVN revert things, too, if someone makes a commit that doesn't work out. -Grant
