So it appears I've been handed the "portdb maintainer" hat. My first duty in this roll was to add a few repos to the portdb cacher. But alas the pdbcacher seems to have locked up and I don't have the privileges to kill the process. So rather than find out what's wrong with it, I've decided to write a new one (sans PHP) with a focus on me having to do as little data entry as possible. A few features I have in mind are, * Allow users to add repositories by themselves. * Allow users to create custom collections from other repositories. * Partial and full caching of repositories. * Make more information available, such as processing footprints, md5sums, meta data and verification results. * XML output, RSS feeds, email alerts, etc. * ??? * Profit Does anyone else have any nifty ideas for what could go into a new portdb? -- Lucas Hazel <lucas@amacdigital.com.au> AMAC Digital Products Technician 209 Beardy Street, Armidale NSW [phone: +61267711287]
