Indexer doesn't consider linkdb when calculating boost value
------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: NUTCH-267
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-267
     Project: Nutch
        Type: Bug

  Components: indexer  
    Versions: 0.8-dev    
    Reporter: Chris Schneider
    Priority: Minor


Before OPIC was implemented (Nutch 0.7, very early Nutch 0.8-dev), if 
indexer.boost.by.link.count was true, the indexer boost value was scaled based 
on the log of the # of inbound links:

    if (boostByLinkCount)
      res *= (float)Math.log(Math.E + linkCount);

This is no longer true (even before Andrzej implemented scoring filters). 
Instead, the boost value is just the square root (or some other scorePower) of 
the page score. Shouldn't the invertlinks command, which creates the linkdb, 
have some affect on the boost value calculated during indexing (either via the 
OPICScoringFilter or some other built-in filter)?
