Hi Alex, You are welcome to contribute to the docs and to the wiki and +1 to your suggestion. Committers are usually subscribed to the Nutch MLs that the wiki sends out diffs to, so we'll see it. If there's something in there that needs refinement, we'll let you know and we appreciate any contribution, docs included!

Whenever we do a new release can we go through the wiki and look for pages like http://wiki.apache.org/nutch/WritingPluginExample-0.9 and add an equivalent page http://wiki.apache.org/nutch/WritingPluginExample-1.0 even if all it contains is something saying "This is the same is in version 0.9" Likewise the page http://wiki.apache.org/nutch/WritingPluginExample should either point to the latest version - or just list the other pages. It shouldn't contain out of date text in it. I'm not sure this is something I should be doing myself since I am not (yet) participating in development of the core code. I don't want to document something until I understand what I am documenting. Of course if a committer wants to keep an eye on me whilst I do it we can chat.
