Doug,

I also noticed that the file:// and ftp:// protocol plugins are
disabled because it uses the activation.jar (I think Sun's jar files
are not redistributable).
I looked into the files and all it uses it the MimetypeFileType and
MimeType classes from the activation.jar. I have seen that some other
apache projects (jetspeed, turbine etc) use their own, sometime
simplistic, implementation of MimeType mapping. I am wondering whether
nutch also plans to do that? I can provide you with patches if that is
the case.

Aside: it would have been nice if there was a Mimetype mapping
implementation in some apache commons project.

Thanks
-Hari
