How about the following: we build just 2 packages:

a local job, no optional filesystems etc), the *.job and *.war files
and scripts. Scripts would check for the presence of plugins/ dir, and
offer an option to create it from *.job. Assumption here is that this
shouldbe enough to run full cycle in local mode, and that people who
want to run a distributed cluster will first install a plain Hadoop
release, and then just put the *.job and bin/nutch on the master.
* source: no build artifacts, no .svn (equivalent to svn export),
simple tgz.
this sounds good to me. additionally some new documentation needs to be
written too.
I added a simple patch to NUTCH-728 to make a plain source release from
svn, what do people think should we add the plain source package into
next rc. I would not like to make changes to binary package now but
propose that we do those changes post 1.0.
