Would it be worthwhile discussing the pros and cons of having two
completely separate Nutch products?  If it is, then now is probably the
right time to do so.

My take on this:

* it's too costly (in terms of available human resources) to maintain both versions for a prolonged period.

* 0.7.x data formats are incompatible with the mapred branch. If we maintain both versions, those who want to migrate will have to convert their data.

* the mapred version can be run in a "local" mode, which requires just a single machine.
