Degrees of Seperation

["Veerman, Christiaan" <cv...@knowledgestorm.com>]

Hello:

I am currently trying to resolve degrees of seperation between a given
seed url and a discovered link within the crawl.

Let me give an example I seed a crawl with http://lucene.apache.org/;
now a discovered link one crawl depth away is http://forrest.apache.org/
and so on...

I figure I have two options to analyze this data:

1. During crawl capture this degrees of seperation via some nutch plugin
or aspect. This is not ideal as keeping track of metadata for a given
domain relationship is extremely difficult to manage as its not a true
linked list or tree but more of a web.

2. After a crawl; *somehow* analyze the lucene or nutch index JIT or
maybe using some kind of filter to retrieve the degrees of seperation
from a given domain.

If any has any input; it would be greatly appreciated.
