Neal,
I've been reading, with interest, the posts on the blog. I have a few
of questions so far.
- Is htdig a competitor to Nutch? If not, could you take a few minutes
to clarify the differences between the two?
- What, if any, modifications to the ranking engine will be made in 4.0
(saw the note about back-links and anchor texts - what about incoming
links from other domains)?
- It seems the goal is to create a library that can be included in
other programs. Will the library include all the code for spidering,
creating the indexes, and searching or just the database creation
stuff, or something else...?
- Are there any security considerations that should be addressed at
this early stage (sanitizing of URL parameters, for example)
I'm not a C developer, but I'm more than happy to try building the
project on Linux and Mac OS X (10.3). Is there a 4.0 branch in CVS or
will we have to wait for you to tag it?
Thanks for the work.
