Create top level dist directory and checkin KEYS file to subversion be standard 
with Lucene Java and Hadoop

                 Key: NUTCH-457
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-457
             Project: Nutch
          Issue Type: Task
         Environment: N/A
            Reporter: Dennis Kubes
         Assigned To: Dennis Kubes
            Priority: Minor


The KEYS file contains public keys of committers and is used to sign releases.  
According to a recent conversation with Doug, "the convention we're moving 
towards in the Lucene project is that each sub-project should maintain this at 
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/SUB_PROJECT/dist/KEYS, then check this 
out in people.apache.org:/www/www.apache.org/dist/lucene/SUB_PROJECT.  Lucene 
Java and Hadoop currently implement this, Nutch does not yet.  So currently the 
KEYS file for Nutch simply lives in the above named directory on 
people.apache.org but is not backed up in subversion."

I recommend that a top level dist directory be created and the KEYS file for 
Nutch be checked out into it to both implement the convention and to have the 
KEYS file backed up in source control.  

I can go ahead and make these changes if there are no objections.
