The thing with Freegle is that I modeled it in close analogy to WWW search engines. Those search engines usually rely on HTML (text, meta tags, links) to categorize urls. Some also allow entering additional keywords in their submission form, but I don't like that. A site should "speak for itself" IMO. Now that we have metadata in key indices though, I'm not the person to boycott that. Storing the RDF metadata in Freegle will probably require some changes in the db (a new table). Since I have some other bugs to fix first and progress is generally quite slow at the moment, this may take a while. But I am willing to do it. BTW - I have a question for all of you: Would anyone be interested in downloading a tarball of the whole Freegle database (mysql format)? I could put it up for download. This database can be useful for many purposes. But it can be harmful too - some of the Freenet DOS attacks discussed on this list rely on a database of as many keys as possible. -Stefan _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl at freenetproject.org http://lists.freenetproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devl
