passed the concept stage, technorati uses lucene, in open source projects
the last thing people want to do is documentation,
anybody know why yahoo took down their nutch server?

I wouldn't call Nutch 0.7.x proof-of-concept. There are several
production sites running it already:
http://wiki.apache.org/nutch/PublicServers
Plus I think technorati is built on either Nutch and/or Lucene.
That said, the doc could be better, and it's probably a good idea
if you know Java since you might have to tweak the code a bit to
get the exact behavior you want. If you don't have special needs,
you could get something like a site search up in very little time.
The newer versions seem to be changing a lot still though. I've
been waiting for the dust to settle before I see if I want to upgrade.

I think it is still very much at proof of concept stage. I think it is
close, but as you have mentioned, the website Is severely out of date
and the information and documentation on it lacks luster. I have tried
to get the tutorial and faqs updated, but I haven't heard back.

Hi there, I'm new around here. The mailing lists seem to have a pretty
steady stream of traffic but the website hasn't been updated since
august, and there's only a handful of news items before that. What is
the vitality of Nutch project? Is it basically a labority proof of
concept or a mature ready for production product?
thanks for your time,
