Excerpts from Yeb Havinga's message of jue may 13 15:06:53 -0400 2010:
My $0.02 - I like the whole 'don't sort, search' (or how did they
call
it?) just let the inbox fill up, google is fast enough. What would be
really interesting is to have some extra 'tags/headers' added to the
emails (document classification with e.g. self organizing
map/kohonen),
so my local filters could make labels based on that, instead of
perhaps
badly spelled keywords in subjects or message body.
I missed this when I read it the first time .. all list email does
have an X-Mailing-List header added so that you can label based on
list itself ... is that what you mean, or are you thinking of
something else entirely?
Something else: if automatic classification of articles was in place,
there would be need of fewer mailing lists, depending on the quality
of the classification.
You've mentinoed this serveral time, but what *is* "autoclassication
of articles"? or is this something you do on the gmail side of things?
I ment classification in the sense of automated as apposed to manual
classification by author or subscriber, in the general sense, not linked
to any mail client or server. Example: junk mail detection by mail client.
After sending my previous mail this morning I looked a bit more into
(the faq of) carrot2, which links to LingPipe as a solution for people
that like pre-defined classes. LingPipe in fact has a tutorial where
they classify a dataset of newsgroups articles, see e.g.
http://alias-i.com/lingpipe/demos/tutorial/classify/read-me.html. I
suppose it would be interesting to see what could be done with the pg
archives. If the archive database itself is publically available, or
could be made available I'd be willing to put some time into this
(solely on the bases that I'm interested in the outcome, not that I
pursue that it'd be used by the pg project, though that'd ofcourse be
cool if it turned out that way in the end)
