I'm sorry to keep pestering this list.  In the future we will move these
types of things to the genoss mailing list.  I'm just trying to catch
those who might not have paid attention to our earlier posts ;-)

If you know of someone who is not on the uug list but would be
interested in the genoss group, please let them and me know.
The can go to elijah.cs.byu.edu to sign-up for the mail list or the
wiki.

The following has been posted to the wiki at elijah.cs.byu.edu

Dr. Yuri Tijerino ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and I ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) just
met. We will like to have the following goals:

   1.Have a prototype crawler-classifier running by May 1.
         1.Have an alpha version finished by April 1
           1. Get nutch up and working by, Friday, Feb 27
           2. Get a classifier up and going (Dr. Jerino to set the date)
           3. Get a set of genealogy training pages ready by March 1
           4. Merge the crawler and classifier by March 15
           5. Get first set of pages by April 1

Those who want to work on nutch, please contact Scott Woodfield
([EMAIL PROTECTED])

Those who want to work on the classifier please contact Dr. Tijerino
([EMAIL PROTECTED]).

We also need someone to work on getting the training set for the
classifier. There are many ways to do it, one might be to put up a web
page where people can submit positive and negative pages (or lists of
pages). And, others can look at the pages and see if they agree or not.
This is not necessarily the best way to do it. Any takers to help us out
on this? Remember, http://cindyslist.com is a good place to find
positive sites. The negative sites might be a little harder. Dr.
Tijerino can probably help on this as well.

If you can't program, you can still help with finding pages that are
positive and negative examples of genealogy pages of interest.

By the way, thanks Stuart for the nice picture.  We appreciate your
help.  There is probably some other web work that can be done.  I don't
want to place it all on Stuart's shoulders.  Can anyone volunteer?
