-----------------------------------------

I am reopening this issue.
The amount of people we see wanting to use XPath in the form of an easily configurable plugin is overwhelming.
The penalty for us not having such a plugin for Nutch is that people go and use Scrapy and abandon attempting to write their own ParseFilter.
We need to be aware that not having this functionality in Nutch out-of-the-box is damaging for our project. 
Thank you [~cguzel] for posting this patch, I am sorry I didn;t see this earlier.
