Hi, I'm working in a fixed set of URLs and I'd like to replace the standard OPIC score plugin with something different. I'd like to create a scoring plugin which entirely bases its score on the document parsed data (yes, I will trust the document text itself to decide its relevance).

I've been reading the code and the ScoringFilter interface seems to be targeted for use by OPIC like algorithms. For example, the step called after parsing is called "passScoreAfterParsing()", telling me what am I supposed to do in that method, and the method setting the scores is called "distributeScoreToOutlink()". All of this scares me... would it be safe to use these methods differently and, e.g., modify the socument score in "passScoreAfterParsing()" instead of just "passing it"?

Should I post these kind of questions to the dev list instead?

Thanks!
