Hi Peter,
A note ahead: moving this discussion back to user@nutch to keep the Nutch
community in the loop.
> can make it a try
This would be simply great! It's always helpful to have more people
test the release packages. Three votes from PMC members are required.
However, any serious issues discovered by anybody else will cause us
to withdraw a buggy release candidate. See also [1] for the Apache
voting process.

Of course! Any contribution is welcome, no matter whether it's about
code, documentation (our wiki [2]), testing and bug reports, pull request
reviews, etc.

- NUTCH-3116 upgrades indexer-solr to Solr 8.11.4
- I've tested the release candidate to index into Solr 8.11.2
which was already installed on my system
- I did not test indexing into Solr 9.x
Best,
Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,
can make it a try - am working on an PoC of Nutch for indexing our public
administration sites in Slovakia.
Can I help in some other way?
Would 1.21 release support newer Solr 8+?

Hi everybody,
A candidate for the Nutch 1.21 release is available at:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/nutch/1.21/ <https://dist.apache.org/
repos/dist/dev/nutch/1.21/>
The release candidate is a zip and tar.gz archive of the binary and sources,
built from:
https://github.com/apache/nutch/tree/release-1.21 <https://github.com/
apache/nutch/tree/release-1.21>
In addition, a staged maven repository is available here:
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachenutch-1023
<https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachenutch-1023>
We addressed 48 issues:
https://s.apache.org/bs58y <https://s.apache.org/bs58y>
Please vote on releasing this package as Apache Nutch 1.21.
The vote is open for the next 72 hours and passes if a majority
of at least three +1 Nutch PMC votes are cast.
[ ] +1 Release this package as Apache Nutch 1.21.
[ ] -1 Do not release this package because...
Cheers,
Sebastian
(On behalf of the Nutch PMC)
P.S.
Here is my +1.
- Tested most of Nutch tools and run a test crawl on a single-node cluster
running Hadoop 3.3.6 and 3.4.1, see
https://github.com/sebastian-nagel/nutch-test-single-node-cluster/ <https://
github.com/sebastian-nagel/nutch-test-single-node-cluster/>
- Building from source package succeeds
- Crawling in local mode using binary package succeeded
- Built and run a Nutch Docker container (using the release branch)
- While testing the release candidate two issues related to logging were
discovered:
NUTCH-3118 is integrated into the 2nd release candidate eligible for
this vote. The first release candidate was dropped because
of this issue.
NUTCH-3119 is scheduled for Nutch 1.22 (it's a minor issue)
