Hello, I am currently looking for an open source software platform to host 19th century newspapers that have been digitized. I know of DLXS and Greenstone our being used for this purpose at some places. I was wondering what other software platforms people our using to host newspapers?

We don't have digitized newspapers, but I've seen a demo of ResCarta= at the last LITA National Forum and it seems the application fits nicely. If you make the content also searchable, ResCarta allows you to provide that search capability and highlight the search term.

Hi, I just tuned in so don't know if this has been mentioned yet or not, but there is also Martini (http://sourceforge.net/projects/martini). I'm sure some of its developers are on this list. From what I understand, one version of Martini also works with other non-Olive XML files.

You can see what we're doing with Martini here: http://peel.library.ualberta.ca/newspapers . It could work with non-Olive XML files with a little work to develop a process to generate the input files that we ingest into the Solr index and the ones that drive the website. It would be mostly XSLT work.=20 Peter Peter Binkley Digital Initiatives Technology Librarian Information Technology Services 4-30 Cameron Library University of Alberta Libraries Edmonton, Alberta Canada T6G 2J8 Phone: (780) 492-3743 Fax: (780) 492-9243 e-mail: pet...@ua... -----Original Message----- From: oss...@li...

What is generating the actual web pages, is that part of Martini as well or something separate. Zachary Spalding Systems Manager Southeastern New York Library Resources Council 21 S.

That's part of Martini: the front end is provided by Cocoon, and there are a set of XSL stylesheets that generate the html pages. (Note that we're somewhat ahead of the version of Martini you'll find on the Sourceforge site). You can peek under the hood by adding "&cocoon-view=3Dcontent" to any url to see the xml that Martini starts with for that page, before the series of transformations that generate the final page.

Hi all, I'm looking at the notion of Open Source, and the Internet, as a participatory culture - the idea that OS & the Web are a hippie effort of sorts. Can anyone think of any articles that might discuss this? John Taylor-Johnston |

For the hippie side of this, forgive me for plugging my brother's forthcoming book: http://www.dukeupress.edu/books.php3?isbn=3D978-0-8223-3989-2 - looking = at the connections between counterculture and consumer culture in the 70s (things like Whole Earth Catalog etc.).

Are you looking for scholarly literature, or just anything? I mean, there'd Eric Raymond's "The Cathedral and the Bazaar" <http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/cathedral-bazaar/> For actual research, a quick literature search turns up: Sandeep Krishnamurthy's "Cave or Community?

I'd also suggest that you drop the term 'hippie' as it has many more connotations than just communal efforts, and your use of the term suggests that you may have a bias in your research. ----- Joe Hourcle |

It's good; I liked it. The history of California computing is very interesting and the emphasis on sharing things freely comes through strongly. There's a new related book that I haven't read but the original poster will want to see: FROM COUNTERCULTURE TO CYBERCULTURE: STEWART BRAND, THE WHOLE EARTH NETWORK, AND THE RISE OF DIGITAL UTOPIANISM, by Fred Turner. Anything about hippies and the web will need to cover Stewart Brand. Bill -- William Denton, Toronto : miskatonic.org : frbr.org : openfrbr.org |
