SL Snapshot
    Keywords: SL description

For those of you who would like a local copy of Sensei's Library, here it is:

[ext] Snapshot of Sensei's Library, 2003-08-25
(size: 19MB - with 7200 pages and over 11500 diagrams)
[ext] Update snapshot 2003-06-20 to 2003-08-25
(size: 4MB - unpack over previous snapshot)

You should be able to unpack the snapshot with Winzip (on Windows) or tar -xzf (on Unix).

The snapshot includes all pages, diagrams, and SGF files.

Just like everything else on SL, this snapshot is published under the terms of the OpenContent license. See SL copyright.

Please see PocketSL or SLoT for snapshots viewable on most hand-held computers.

There is a read-only static copy of the most recent snapshot available for viewing at [ext] http://holosys.co.uk/slsnapshot/. This is intended as a viewable backup in the event that the main SL site is unavailable.

If you think that the snapshot is out of date, drop me a short message.

Note: snapshots from 2002 or earlier may have filename link mismatches on case-sensitive systems.


FAQ

Q: Could snapshots be provided more often?

A: Currently, making a snapshot of SL is not done by a script, but manually. There is a plethora of reasons why. I'm working on resolving the remaining issues, so that it can be done by a script. Meanwhile, I provide a new snapshot every 2-3 months.

The wiki-dump.sql file used by the hand-held snapshots is updated once per month (automatically).

Q: How about higher compression (e.g. with bzip2 instead of gzip)?

A: Currently, Bzip2 is not supported by Winzip so this might not be a good idea.

Q: I'd like to play with the wiki data myself. Do you provide the wiki data in source text format?

A: Yes. Use the wiki-dump.sql file. It is a snapshot of part of the wiki database. It contains all information necessary to play around. The file is updated monthly.
