Hi,

Sorry I have committed my changes before I had the go ahead of the
other peers. I am still learning the opensource etiquette. I thought
it was fine to replace the code since I believe the Cassandra part was
broken. I personnally never managed to use the code "as is". It was
mentioned to me the entire backend needed to be rewritten:
See Julien's comment in this page:
http://techvineyard.blogspot.com/2011/01/trying-nutch-20-hbase-storage.html:

"The Cassandra backend in GORA is in need of serious work and is not
considered fully functional, IIRC it is not thread safe. There has
been a new release of Cassandra in the meantime and I am pretty sure
that it would be quicker to simply write a new backend for GORA based
on the latest release..."

Now we have 2 options:
- revert the modifications and go back to a broken state
- test the new version and iterate from there. I'm sure it's not
perfect but at least we have a seemingly working state to start with.

Sorry for the bad surprise.
