Dear Gophers, just to let you know that the crawl of the whole Gopherspace (which I nicknamed "Burrow the Burrows") is going on, and you can find an update on the current graph at: gopher://kalos.mine.nu/1/burrow/index.gph Some quick info on the crawl so far (20180827T170000Z): - 333 active gopherholes - ~1.7M active menus parsed - ~8.8M type-1 selectors among those active menus found - ~98% of all the menus are linked by less than 3 other menus Obviously, most of those type-1 selectors (about 90% of them) are part of large file archives and/or news and documentation mirrors, which is quite expected. Also, the post-processing is currently quite rough, so the actual numbers might be slightly different (e.g., due to some domains being merged). The main reason why the crawl has not finished yet is that I am limiting its speed on purpose, to avoid that it could become obtrusive for some servers. After all, we are not in a hurry, are we? Comments, suggestions, and feedback are welcome. HND KatolaZ P.S.: Unfortunately, I still don't receive messages from this mailing-list, despite having registered with two different emails. If anyone here could do anything about that, it would be much appreciated. P.P.S.: If you are wondering, the crawler would contact your gopherhole from htonl(0x25bb6f56) -- [ ~.,_ Enzo Nicosia aka KatolaZ - Devuan -- Freaknet Medialab ] [ "+. katolaz [at] freaknet.org --- katolaz [at] yahoo.it ] [ @) http://kalos.mine.nu --- Devuan GNU + Linux User ] [ @@) http://maths.qmul.ac.uk/~vnicosia -- GPG: 0B5F062F ] [ (@@@) Twitter: @KatolaZ - skype: katolaz -- github: KatolaZ ]
