Hi Folks, The Nutch team are currently on the lookout for interested students willing to engage in this years Google Summer of Code Program [0]. What is GSoC? A global program that offers students stipends to write code for open source projects. In 2014 the Apache Nutch project participated in a successful project which resulted in a WebApplication for the Nutch 2.X REST API. Right now we are currently soliciting applications ON ANY TOPIC/ISSUE from students. Interested students should write to dev@nutch.apache.org with their questions/proposals where one of the team will aid you with a response. To give a helping hand, the PMC have already suggested a potential issue which involves porting Nutch (trunk) to the Hadoop 2.X API [1]. We are however open to any other topic students may be interested in and willing to discuss. Thanks in advance, Lewis (On behalf of Nutch PMC)
