What's new in StormCrawler 1.18

 
StormCrawler 1.18 has just been released. Since the previous version dates from nearly 10 months ago, the number of changes is rather large (see below).

This version contains many bugfixes, as usual, users are advised to upgrade to this version. One of the noticeable new features is module for URLFrontier (if you haven't checked it up, do so right now!); I will publish a tutorial on how to use it soon.

1.18 is also likely to be the last release based an Apache Storm 1.x, our 2.x branch will become master as soon as I have released 2.1.

Happy crawling and thanks to our sponsors, contributors and users!
