I am working on creating CGI and converter scripts of the bucktooth
format and the UMN format for geomyidae. The modular architecture of
geomyidae allows this easily.
While doing so I find more and more things that need to be documented
or preserved for historical reasons, so the task is not just a
converter script, it's also making a documentation of what was there.
So anyone wanting to help and knows some old obscure gophermap or
gopherd format, that needs conversion, let me know. Writing a converter
or a handler in a cgi or dcgi script is really easy.
When that is done, a new geomyidae release will come out, with the new
gopher TLS support and some speedups. Everyone stay tuned.
Sincerely,
Christoph Lohmann
