Probably a good idea, the issue is we have a lack of place to put
such tarballs, so maybe a way of downloading it is better.

basically untar the file each time? that's also a valid option.

src for debugging, only contains *.java files in it.

odd thta this html file would come in as compressed

again src files.

this looks like the new src zip for nutch, it should probably be
trimmed down to only include

this -src.jar needs to get removed, it looks like the old one.
