Re: Public export of Perl Monks database

in reply to Public export of Perl Monks database

I'm not sure exactly what you're proposing. Are you saying an export of the entire database, including code, home nodes, passwords, etc? I don't think that would be a good idea.

The Everything engine can import and export what are called "nodeballs". If you have a certain set of node_id's you want, gods have expressed willingness (in the context of pmdev) to create nodeballs of them. I can't speak for them, but they may be willing to do the same for you if you ask nicely. Of course, it would have to be a reasonable-sized set, with all the usual caveats about security, available time and resources, and so on.

Or am I misinterpreting your question entirely?

I did say some restricted export - so no I don't mean to publish password etc. I was thinking about something like a let's say weekly automatic dump in a publicly available directory.
