> The KEYS file contains public keys of committers and is used to sign releases.  According to a recent conversation with Doug, "the convention we're moving towards in the Lucene project is that each sub-project should maintain this at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/SUB_PROJECT/dist/KEYS, then check this out in people.apache.org:/www/www.apache.org/dist/lucene/SUB_PROJECT.  Lucene Java and Hadoop currently implement this, Nutch does not yet.  So currently the KEYS file for Nutch simply lives in the above named directory on people.apache.org but is not backed up in subversion."
> I recommend that a top level dist directory be created and the KEYS file for Nutch be checked out into it to both implement the convention and to have the KEYS file backed up in source control.  
> I can go ahead and make these changes if there are no objections.
