I want to know when is the expected release for version 0.5 ?.
I think we're close. There have been a lot of low-level changes to Nutch recently, but I think that rate of change is now slowing. I'd like to wait a bit longer, to give folks a chance to find any serious bugs, before we make another release. The nightly build was broken, but I think that is fixed now. If, in the next few days, no serious bugs show up, then I'll probably make a 0.5 release.
I'm working on a patchset related to adaptive fetch interval (discussed on the list). I have a first cut impl. working, but still using the current byte-sized fetch interval. Proper implementation calls for changing the WebDB format, to store fetch interval as seconds, not days (e.g. in a 4-byte value, instead of 1-byte it uses now). This will of course break all existing DBs, although it is possible to write a tool to migrate it.
Since I'm leaving soon for vacation, I can't promise to stay around and fix the bugs, if we commit it before 0.5. This format change, however unpleasant, can be done after 0.5-R, assuming I have enough resources to write the tool... or we can just change the format now, in preparation for these patches, and I'll submit them when I'm back.
