----------------------------------------

Steve:
I was going to say "Great to see you started work on this!", but then noticed 
your comment is from March 2007, not March 2008. :)

So, instead, let me ask: "Did anything come out of this?"  I, too, am seeing a 
need for a Nutch-based search engine.

> Per the discussion in the Nutch-User mailing list, there is a wish for an 
> "Image Search" add-on component that will index images.
> Must have:
> - retrieve outlinks to image files from fetched pages
> - generate thumbnails from images
> - thumbnails are stored in the segments as ImageWritable that contains the 
> compressed binary data and some meta data 
> Should have:
> - implemented as hadoop map reduce job
> - should be seperate from main Nutch codeline as it breaks general Nutch 
> logic of one url == one index document.
> Could  have:
> - store the original image in the segments
> Would like to have:
> - search interface for image index
> - parameterizable thumbnail generation (width, height, quality)
