Status
Project Description Team Ghiblink Member(s) Assigned
Create Mirror file normal Create a zipped mirror file so people can easily download the entire site (not including the file-archives). unassigned
HTML-ize file archives normal
PCD:none
Make an HTML version of the file archives to facilitate easier searching. Joe has a cgi script that could prove useful for this. unassigned
Hypermail-related, advanced normal
PCD:none
Fix the broken "hypermail 1.02" link Rachel, Michael(?)
normal
PCD:none
Instead of monthly listing, make it 6-monthly (or any long period) listing, or even make it infinite-monthly listing. This is to avoid going through an intermediate page. Rachel, Michael(?)
normal
PCD:none
Disable listing the "to" field in each message Rachel, Michael(?)
normal
PCD:none
Optionally disable listing the "from" field (ie all posts are from one author, Team Ghiblink) Rachel, Michael
normal
PCD:none
Modify the look/layout of the pages, like adding our standard header and footer, use a blue background with white text, etc. Rachel, Michael
Listar-related, tricky: normal
PCD:none
Similar to the automatically added [kiki] tags, consider adding a date tag, so that the subject line looks like:
   (0506)[kiki] Kiki in Berkeley
(or whatever order the date tag appears); this is so that people can spot a newly-added item more easily in the subject-line listing page
Rachel, Michael(?)
On-the-fly page generation normal
PCD:none
Conversion of the site from a collection of hand-coded pages to a set of database-generated pages which become easier to search and more perfectly uniform in appearance; hopefully the conversion will not mean that the site becomes more difficult to update. unassigned
working... working... working... working...
Hypermail-related, advanced working...
PCD:none
Consider alternate software other than hypermail, like MHonArc, a Perl5-based mailbox-to-html converter. See also John Goerzen's example. Rachel

see "Edit current..."
Remove the word "announce" in the "[ ]" subject tag, ie a simple "[kiki]" should be good enough Rachel
COMPELTED
1999.05.25
01:45 PST
----
see "Edit current..."
Disable the automatic [Ghibli] tag in the collect-all group, so that each subject in that group only has one tag like "[kiki]", "[mh]" or "[other]" inherited from the corresponding kiki/mh/other groups, instead of the two tags we have right now Michael
Web-based Search Engine COMPLETED Implement a web-based search engine visitors Nausicaa.net can search the site with. There's a prototype at /cgi-bin/msearch.cgi, but it only works for IE 3.02 so far. (-Michael)

I should reinstall GLIMPSE. (-Rachel)

Implement GLIMPSE.

Joe installed a new search engine that works really well.
