Yep, as the archives are ~700 megs, I believe they are accessible only through www.freebsd.org, but not through any of the mirrors. Also, few if any of the mirrors run cgi's locally; we hope to improve on that.

After a couple months of stagnation, the archives are being re-indexed at the moment so most are not available from www.freebsd.org either. The archiving and indexing has been tweaked to facilitate weekly updates. Although the indexing is not done, I estimate the archives+indexes will top 1GB. The most efficient way to mirror would be to make the text of the archives available via cvsup and have the mirror do indexing. It would be nice to see a couple strategically placed mirrors of this service. I'd help out anyone interested in providing such a service. -john From owner-freebsd-www Tue Aug 26 14:00:44 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id OAA07693 for www-outgoing; Tue, 26 Aug 1997 14:00:44 -0700 (PDT) Received: from ccr.dsi.uanl.mx (ccr.dsi.uanl.mx [148.234.15.4]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id OAA07687 for ; Tue, 26 Aug 1997 14:00:40 -0700 (PDT) Received: by ccr.dsi.uanl.mx (MX V4.2 VAX) id 518; Tue, 26 Aug 1997 15:24:26 CST6 Date: Tue, 26 Aug 1997 15:24:26 CST6 From: Daniel Salas Limon To: WWW@FREEBSD.ORG Message-ID: <009B95BC.9A150779.518@ccr.dsi.uanl.mx> Subject: Ask for Info.

We want answers to some questions. 1. Will they be provided on www.FreeBSD.org? 2. If so, where is the "root" page? 3. Will they be put into the CVS repository on freefall? We now are working with the assumption of answers to above, that: 1. Yes. 2. http://www.FreeBSD.org/ja_JP.EUC/ 3. Yes. Could you give me any idea?

I am a member of Japanese Documentation Project and am connected with the the existing translation works such as Handbook, FAQ. Also, I am one of webmasters on www.jp.FreeBSD.org. In addition, I have a commit privilege on freefall and I am maintaining the Japanese translation of Handbook. So, I can maintain the Japanese translation of Web pages if they were put into the CVS repository on freefall.

These should basically be replicas of the english pages, but stored in language subdirectories like ja_JP.EUC. All such native language pages will always be built and carried by all mirrors. We have gobs of mirror sites around the world and if a few drop off because of extra space demands in mirroring multiple languages, then so be it. An German speaker in Japan should be able to get German from www.ja.freebsd.org and a Japanese speaker in Germany should should be able to get Japanese from www.de.freebsd.org. Second is additional native language pages which, for the moment, I rather not deal with in the repository. Currently a number of mirrors have their additional pages as the root of the mirror, with a link to the mirrored pages. An alterative would be to standardize on www.xx.freebsd.org/local/ for local pages. Www.freebsd.org would ship out a "This server has no local pages" page in that directory and mirrors that have extra pages could just redirect that URL to their locally maintained pages.

While I can certainly see advantages to this model, I have question whether or not it's truly realistic. As a whole, our existing collection of mirrors is still chasing to catch up with the new english language content and layout of www.freebsd.org and, in well over 2 years, we've yet to succeed in achieving true syncronization with even a majority percentage of them. I don't think that we should complicate a mechanism we've yet to truly standardize on, and I'd furthermore consider it a major victory if we could get even single web servers to display properly localized versions of the pages built from CVS supplied sources. It's also not like the expat German and Japanese speakers would be completely without recourse in the less ambitious model - connectivity between www.jp.freebsd.org and www.de.freebsd.org is getting better all the time. :) > Second is additional native language pages which, for the moment, > I rather not deal with in the repository.

An alterative would be to But if this content were easier to syncronize and build via the CVS repository and our default "build me a set of web pages" toolchain, don't you think that a lot of the regional mirrors would elect to keep their top pages directly under CVS, local tweaks and all?

I don't follow. The addition of another language is no different than, say, fixing a typo. If they mirror the pages on a regular basis, they get the update. If they don't mirror on a regular basis they don't. The addition of Japanese, or any other language, is simply a matter of more bytes, not any procedural change. > But if this content were easier to syncronize and build via the CVS > repository and our default "build me a set of web pages" toolchain, > don't you think that a lot of the regional mirrors would elect to keep > their top pages directly under CVS, local tweaks and all? Accessing the cvs repository on freefall is often a pain; 50% packet loss is typical, and I'm only coming from Indiana. As far as streamlining the tools, Paul Richards gave me a prototype a (long) while back that I still have not looked at very carefully, and my window of opportunity is closing fast---classes start on Monday. I'm just tackling smaller scale projects at the moment. The mailing list archives are now updated weekly for example. If it were not for the grunt work Nate Johnson has been putting in lately, the web site would be rusting by now! :) I may have have to start tagging the rest of the web-related positions listed in the handbook as "vacant", in this case policing mirrors to make sure they are all subscribed to the www mailing list, are updating on a reasonable schedule and so on. -john From owner-freebsd-www Wed Aug 27 17:04:28 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id RAA19432 for www-outgoing; Wed, 27 Aug 1997 17:04:28 -0700 (PDT) Received: from echo.eos.ncsu.edu (echo.eos.ncsu.edu [152.1.68.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id RAA19425 for ; Wed, 27 Aug 1997 17:04:22 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from nsj@localhost) by echo.eos.ncsu.edu (8.8.4/EC02Jan97) id AAA14828 for www@freebsd.org; Thu, 28 Aug 1997 00:04:19 GMT Message-Id: <199708280004.AAA14828@echo.eos.ncsu.edu> Subject: Re: Another gallery submission...

No, you should be even less inclined.

Actually BSDI has their own version of the "gallery" Maybe you should point them to BSDI? I'm not against adding them, we have persiankitty.com listed in the gallery as well somewhere, but they ran FreeBSD afaik, when they were submitted. Just a thought.

I just haven't found the time to do anything, but my idea is like this: To find articles fast, you need to keep an index (into the raw files). Probably by message-id. This index would also contain the basic info about an article, such as subject, author, date, thread-id. When an article is added to the index, you either look at references: or try to match the subject sensibly (there are a lot mailers that won't generate references:/in-reply-to: correctly or at all) to find the thread it belongs to. A CGI then would use the index to retrieve the message by id, and additionally show messages belonging to this thread. The thread-id could be the message-id of the first message in the thread.

A thread is primairly a human construct that is loosely represented in the actual messages with In-reply-to, references and subject lines. DejaNews does the best that I've seen, but it still leaves some to be desired. For a good discussion of the issues, see: David D. Lewis and Kimberly A Knowles (1997) Threading electronic mail: a preliminary study. Information Processing & Management, 33(2):209-217. It turns out that breaking messages down in to quoted and unquoted chunks, indexing them separately, and using vector space similarity measures (what freeWAIS uses) for retrieval is more accurate in retrieving what a human would consider to be a message thread than following subject lines, in-reply-to or references fields.

I've been puttering around with using postgres for thread indexing using these field, but have not spent much time on it. Some preliminary experiments with freeWAIS (used for keyword searching) show some possibility, but even simple date restrictions in searches really stretch the boundaries of what freeWAIS was designed to do efficiently. As for constructing threads at index time, this may be best for efficiency but extra care must be give to how threads are represented. For example, an "in-reply-to" linked tree may contain several distinct, but related threads. It should be possible to get at the sub-threads individually, as well as the larger thread. This means that any message may have multiple thread membership, either directly or indirectly via some thread record with pointers to parent/child threads. Ultimately, I would hope for thread discovery at search time rather than indexing time because it offers much more flexibility in tweaking various dimensions of the thread concept--broadening or narrowing the boundaries, building threads that cross boundaries between in-reply-to message trees, etc.... What makes this problem difficult is the lack of off-the-shelf software. (And things like hypermail that don't scale are disqualified.) A relational sort of database is necessary for some parts of the problem, a text database for others but neither one is sufficient. The world would benefit greatly from good message threading software. Today, the individual message is the unit of retrieval, but from a human point of view, the thread should be. -john From owner-freebsd-www Fri Aug 29 07:16:50 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id HAA06049 for www-outgoing; Fri, 29 Aug 1997 07:16:50 -0700 (PDT) Received: from fallout.campusview.indiana.edu (fallout.campusview.indiana.edu [149.159.1.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id HAA06034 for ; Fri, 29 Aug 1997 07:16:28 -0700 (PDT) Received: from localhost (jfieber@localhost) by fallout.campusview.indiana.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id JAA13537; Fri, 29 Aug 1997 09:16:14 -0500 (EST) Date: Fri, 29 Aug 1997 09:16:14 -0500 (EST) From: John Fieber To: Christopher G Mann cc: www@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Break It Dude In-Reply-To: <19970828153645.29280@cdrom.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-www@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk On Thu, 28 Aug 1997, Christopher G Mann wrote: > I noticed that the text, > > FreeBSD Handbook : ... : Supported Configurations : Miscellaneous devices > > appeared directly after the image map at the top.

For the first step, it won't be a linked tree but a list: given a message, the in-reply-to id is used to look up the thread id from the message referenced, thus assigning all follow-ups the same thread-id. Yes, this leaves room for improvement :-) How do you determine the border between two threads, that are linked to the same anchestors? My general feeling is that I rather look through 100 messages to find the one I want than let an "intelligent" system present only one to me, and that being not the one I'm looking for.

Dates will be very helpful, but you the Date: field cannot be relied upon. Rather, use the date in the received: line of its arrival at freefall or hub. That should provide much more consistency. > How do you determine the border between two threads, that are linked to the > same anchestors? My general feeling is that I rather look through 100 > messages to find the one I want than let an "intelligent" system present > only one to me, and that being not the one I'm looking for. Without machinery for doing document similarity measures, about the only think that comes to mind is relying on the human convention of using (was: ...) in subject lines. From a topological view of a tree alone, I can't think of any way to determine that two long branches are related or not. You could assume that any branch longer than X constitutes a thread of its own, which just might be on the same topic as another branch. In fact, that is probably a better way to do it. But, if you can compute similarities between documents on one branch with documents in the other, and they are more different than the documents within a branch are from each other, we can guess that the common parent represented a branching point in the discussion. Which gives me an interesting idea...find one interesting thread and use the whole thread as a query to see if the topic was discussed at another time. -john From owner-freebsd-www Fri Aug 29 18:20:23 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id SAA10598 for www-outgoing; Fri, 29 Aug 1997 18:20:23 -0700 (PDT) Received: from ki1.chemie.fu-berlin.de (ki1.chemie.fu-berlin.de [160.45.24.21]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id SAA10586; Fri, 29 Aug 1997 18:20:04 -0700 (PDT) Received: by ki1.chemie.fu-berlin.de (Smail3.1.28.1) from mail.hanse.de (193.174.9.9) with smtp id ; Sat, 30 Aug 97 03:20 MEST Received: from wavehh.UUCP by mail.hanse.de with UUCP for jfieber@FreeBSD.ORG id ; Sat, 30 Aug 97 03:19 MET DST Received: by wavehh.hanse.de (4.1/SMI-4.1) id AA03885; Fri, 29 Aug 97 20:27:57 +0200 From: cracauer@wavehh.hanse.de (Martin Cracauer) Message-Id: <9708291827.AA03885@wavehh.hanse.de> Subject: Re: Something I've always wanted to see with the mailing list To: stefan@promo.de (Stefan Bethke) Date: Fri, 29 Aug 1997 20:27:57 +0200 (MET DST) Cc: jkh@time.cdrom.com, jfieber@FreeBSD.ORG, www@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: from "Stefan Bethke" at Aug 29, 97 12:42:12 pm X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24] Content-Type: text Sender: owner-freebsd-www@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk > Yes, definitly.
