Now that the indexing and search has been moved out of Nutch, the code is mostly about crawling and we'll leverage the search functionalities of external projects. This doesn't mean that you can't use Nutch to build a search system - at the opposite - but that Nutch itself is mostly a crawler with support for indexing / searching in SOLR.
