[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-408?page=comments#action_12452610 ] nutch.newbie commented on NUTCH-408: ------------------------------------
Yes, I have gone through the media style documentation and it is a good start. and there are also some very good documentation in Nutch wiki. My thinking was to complete-compile existing documentation in a coherent way so that you get the whole picture. So I would like to give it a shot at writing but I can not do this all by myself as I lack background info plus I haven't wrote any plugin myself so if any of you would like to help me I would like to do this job. Feel free to mail me directly if you are up for it. I will probably ask lot of stupid question but we will have some development documentation at least :=) what you say? anyone up for this?

But very vital for extending current (0.9) nutch. > Current docs on the wiki for 0.7 plugin development was good but it doesn't > apply to 0.9 and new developers who are joining directly 0.9 find the 0.7 > documentation not enough. A more practical plugin writing documentation for > 0.9 is desired also exposing the plugin principals in practical terms i.e. > extension points and libs etc. furthermore it would be good to provide some > best practice example i.e. > look for the lib you are planning to use if its already in lib folder and > maybe that version of the external lib is good for the plugin dev rather then > using another version things like that.. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
