Hi,
I've written a web based recipe browser. The initial version is done.
My browser is different from the GoboLinux.org recipe search tool in
the following ways:
* Uppercase letters in queries do not cause 'Invalid characters in
search' errors
* Sort by name or by date
* Consistent link appearance - underline *only* on hover
* Recipe age in days instead of long timestamps
* Ability to view files inside recipes with a single click
* Dependency cross linking
* ALT+S accesskey
You can see my browser here:
http://gobo.dreamhosters.com/recipes/
I had a cron job rsyncing the recipes every hour, but I've disabled
that temporarily, as it caused page-loads to slow way down. Also,
Dreamhost is currently having file server problems, which may have
compounded the slowdown problem. I'll re-enable the rsync cron job
once I've fixed the slowdown issue.
Suggestions welcome.
