Hi Eddie, Great to hear that! Just to add to what Markus said there are also quite a few tasks to do on the NutchGora branch if that's something you'd be interested in. Or outside the tasks on JIRA, there is always a fair bit to do on the Wiki e.g. how to run in distributed mode etc...
Just out of curiosity, could you tell us a bit about what you've been using Nutch for at Wolfram Research?
