Thanks to everyone participating into the hackathon yesterday. It is
still going on. We did some ground-breaking work.
1.) We found out what is so hard to search through the archive:
* There are many empty servers and directories.
* This gets people very easily bored.
So here is a solution:
gophers://bitreich.org/0/gopher2007/archive/not-empty-files.txt
This a list of not empty files in the archive. You can now easily grep
and retrive those files for your personal unix pipe search, AI analysis,
mime type checking for text files and content etc. The archive is your
oyster.
Btw., one link from the archive was contributed as regular link to the
lawn already, so this hackathon was a success. :D
2.) We now have a native integration of the pearl generation from the
gopher lawn.
* Simply use the category gopher-pearls and name the file the
following way:
pearl-my-pearl.text
* The ./mk-pearls script will pick those up files beginning with
"pearl-" and generate the front menu of the archive.
The second goal of the hackathon was a success too.
Today is GangBAN (Bitreich Area Network LAN gaming party). Please stay
tunned for the news.
