Fjodor Vershinin commented on NUTCH-841:
----------------------------------------

Hello all! 
My name is Fedor Vershinin, and I study computer science in Tallinn University of Technology in Estonia.
My brother shared some info about Google Summer of Code and I see that ASF takes part in this project, so I’d decided to get in touch. I am quite interested in development using Apache Wicket framework, and even more interested in contribution to open-source projects.
My background: some Java and python development, can use git/mercurial, eclipse, maven, restful, html, SQL and so on. I dont have much experience, but I have desire to learn.
Also, brother said he can help me with initial setup, brief picture of whole project and some architectural decisions.
So, it would be nice if you give me some advice, where I can start to explore Nutch, and I wish to join your community in future.
Best regards,
Fedor

> In light of the conversation on NUTCH-837, we are removing the old Nutch webapp and will replace it with a 2.0 one that works with GORA + Solr. 
> Apache Nutch versions prior to 1.3 used to ship with a web application that allowed basic search, and browse of the information captured in the Nutch index. Since 1.3, we deprecated and removed the webapp mainly due to the fact that the segment API changed (we moved to Solr), and also due to the fact that we didn't want to maintain a webapp b/c those JSPs were a pain.
> I am going to propose having a Nutch web application using Apache Wicket http://wicket.apache.org/. This would be very cool and since I know Wicket, I'm willing to help maintain it. 
> The webapp should implement all of the old web pages and functionality, and also should support the basic views, and connection to Solr instead of to Lucene, and of should also consider both the trunk branch, and the 2.0 branch (Gora based).
> I'm putting this out there as a GSoC project for 2013.
