wwwampire is just funny looking name for project that
will create an architecture
for sharing extended bookmarks and using them for various purposes.
The main parts/goals are:
-
ldap_bookmarks
- shared bookmarks accessible via LDAP
- as core vocabulary is used Dublin Core Metadata Element Set
-
clients:
- client component for Mozilla (LDAP RDF datasource is read-only now, volunteers ?)
- client for other browsers - JSP, later maybe applet
-
URI up2date - set of simple Perl apps checking bookmarked resources for changes
- URI fetcher - now quite stupid, rewrite to multithreading deamon using probably curl_easy lib
- change checker - checks for changes and reports them back to server
-
SW up2date - will add more data and allow to check for new version of software and install it
