My guess is the development is internal only. The stuff on the mailing list was chaotic at first, and then it sort of died out.

The list seems to used for idea and link exchange. Since nutch is a possible solution for wikia search maybe we should be more active in the project. Also I believe there are some people in the nutch community who has precious hands-on xp with an online search engine. And i encourage them to take part in wikia search. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
