some general question about Nutch Search engine.

Hi
Thank you for reading my post
I have some general question :
1-does Nutch support multilanguage indexing and searching ?
2-does it has capability to index and search more than 500,000 site in a 
timely manner?
3-does it have capabilities to add ADs System , sponsored result first and 
other features that for example google search engine has?
4-does licensing allow me to use/modefy it for my own purpose without 
sharing the source ?
5-does its robot support site list / domainextension list (for example 
searching and indexing all UK extension)

Thank you.

Yes, to large degree (there are always issues when making assumptions 
about the query language).

Sure, no problem. I typically work with instances that collect data from 
5 mln pages, others run installations that have ~100 mln pages.

Requires coding, but not so complicated.

Yes, ASL-2.0 license, same as Lucene.

Yes.
