Hi: I am in the process of finishing up an Installer for Nutch 0.8 (one machine/local install), I am using opensource installer which complies with Apache 2.0 Lic. so my plan is to make it opensouce if there are enough community interest. The installer is in Java and you can integrate it with Ant. So keeping it up to date is very easy. The goal has been to make it easy for folks to get started in 30 min (including crawl and index). I have also bundled tomcat with the installer. The installer is in Java and works with all OS. However there are some legal issue so we can not really bundle cygwin for windows. So I am wondering what is the plan or how can we help to get rid of the cygwin problem? There is beanshell, groovy etc.. any suggestions? I know batch file or perl is not an option? no? we can do batch file. Tomcat do batch? any views?
And also I am looking for beta testers. Thanks for the feedback.
