I can speak for myself only .. I'm not tracking that list. What about others?

Folks who are running a nutch-based crawler that provides this email address as the contact address should subscribe to this list and respond to messages, especially those which may have been caused by their crawler. Others are also encouraged to subscribe and help respond to messages here, as a bad reputation for the crawler affects the whole project. This list is actually fairly low-volume.

This brings up an issue I've been thinking about. It might make sense to require everybody set the user-agent string, versus it having default values that point to Nutch.

The first time you run Nutch, it would display an error re the user-agent string not being set, but if the instructions for how to do this were explicit, this wouldn't be much of a hardship for anybody trying it out.

That would be a better solution.
