Hello All, I thought some of you would be interested in a project I
launched a few months ago - gopherpedia, a mirror of wikipedia in
gopherspace. It's accessible on port 70 at gopherpedia.com, or via
proxy server at http://gopherpedia.com/

The data is searchable, and there's a list of recent searches on the
front page, along with a mirror of Wikipedia's featured daily content.

Nice work, wikipedia is such a killer feature when one needs to waste some
time, its amazing how one can get from one topic to a whole different one in a few clicks.

Had toyed with the idear myself, had the wiki dumps here and made some code, but as you says its a time consuming process to keep it uptodate, big files and all that .

seems the i lines your server sendes includes an extra field
i====================================================================== null (FALSE) 0

should only be itext\thost\tport

tables gets a bit confusing when they gets linewrapped, but not much you can do, sans detecting tables and send lines as long as needed, and let the clients handle any issues that may arise, else it works perfect.

Regards
