JAA: does the warrior thing archive from multiple locations to avoid a particular archiving run be manipulated or blocked from one of them?
-
JAA
pabs: The warrior is a convenient way for the casual user to contribute to our distributed archival projects. And those are distributed because of the resources required for those projects; they simply couldn't be done from a single machine (even ignoring rate limits, IP blocks, etc.) due to the ridiculous hardware that would require.

I understood that, but wondered if one URL is downloaded only once from one user, or multiple times from multiple users in multiple locations
-
JAA
Only once unless we detect issues. There's usually not enough time for duplication.
-
pabs
hmm, ok

Not sure if you saw it but allegedly Trimble is removing all SketchUp 3D models made with SketchUp 2017 (and earlier, if any) - meaning the free versions - from their online website, after July 27
-
JAA
Per the notice on
3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/: 'Heads up! After July 27, SketchUp 2017 models will no longer be available for download on 3D Warehouse unless it was originally uploaded in that format.'
-
JAA
Sounds like they convert files to later versions for compatibility and remove only those when they're too old?

The web interface tries to get you to log in to download models, but the download URLs are in a JSON blob in the model page HTML.

"3D Warehouse maintains SketchUp files in the current version, the previous two versions, and the version the model was originally uploaded in. This means that you will no longer be able to download SketchUp 2017 models unless the model was originally uploaded in that version."

pabs: GNOME Bugzilla was turned into a static site today it seems. They didn't preserve bug history (show_activity.cgi) or attachments, as far as I can tell... :-|
-
JAA
Unless that's still in progress or something.
-
JAA
Nevermind, they did, but the action=edit pages for attachments serve the attachment rather than the info page.
-
JAA
they did keep attachments*
-
JAA
show_activity.cgi is 403.

Regarding CNPq Lattes: it's not online currently, but they have made a statement that no data was lost.

-
grafck
it is said they have backups, but they are actually not back up yet
-
JAA
Nothing to do there currently, but I suppose we could look into it when it's restored. At least get a size estimate etc.
-
grafck
As far as I remember, it is a mostly text based website
-
grafck
but they do have a captcha for accessing many pages
