Thank you all for you comments and suggestions. The response has been
overwhelming.

The most common question we got was, "Why can't I see my WebCache?"

So, here's the short (and not the most popular answer). To populate the
WebCache, you must get the Toolbar, which at this point runs on Windows & IE
6.0. Also, the indexing right now is batched every 30 minutes. Thus it may
take about 30 minutes to an hour for pages to start showing up.

Hopefully this will help you get started.

I did get a few requests for minor changes we made "title bolding, regex
filter, etc.", so if you need something please send me an email and we'll
try and work on getting the most popular requests to CVS first.

Regards,
CC

Subject: [Nutch-dev] Introducing Filangy

Folks:

So here is the newest Nutch/Lucene-based search engine. We initially started
development in March of last year from scratch, but after 3 months swapped
the indexing engine in favor of Nutch.  

This project would have never gotten on a fast (or faster) track if it were
not for the Nutch/Lucene community. I'd like to thank you all and in
particular:

- Doug & Michael, for the totally AMAZING Lucene and Nutch. 
- Otis and Erik for the much needed and wonderfully written "Lucene in
Action". It's a must-have.
- Matt, Stefan, Andrzej, Antonio, Luke, Sven and all the others for
documentation on the wiki, answering  questions and submitting patches.

Some of you may not realize how many sleepless nights you saved us by
asking/answering a question or sending in a bug fix.

So what is Filangy -- you can get that from here www.filangy.com. I'll save
all of you who are interested in technology the marketing mumbo-jumbo.

It would be greatly appreciated if I could get your feedback. Here's a link

As we had written a lot of the code and then added Nutch we continued on
parallel paths -- which made Nutch more or less a plugin by itself. Over the
coming weeks we plan to move a lot of the overlapping code into Nutch
(either as a patch or plugin). Most of the changes/enhancements we made are
related to the following areas:

- Improving fetch/crawl quality
- Ranking
- Distribution and Scalability
- Frequent Indexing/Re-indexing

If after playing with the product anyone has any specific questions or would
like to know more about a particular area -- please feel free to send me an
email. There are no secrets if it relates to Nutch core or additions.

Thank you
CC
