Meeting Minutes from January 15th, 2006 

The meeting in which we attempt to describe their structure, and our proposal, 
and further divide the labors. 

Their Current Structure:
Two folders under a main directory
Archives
	Archive97 
	Archive98 
	Archive99? 
	These three contain the articles and images as well. 
	The other pages were at top level in one of two forms 
	monthYear.htm 
	indexYear.htm 
	^ These files only reference pages in the articles 

Articles 
Every article they've ever produced (since 99) resides in this 
folder. This folder contains both the images and the web pages, 
which are named in no particular manner. They are for our 
purposes, completely random. 

3-5 articles a month
12 montths a year
8 years


288 – 480 Articles 

Our Structure: 
Year 
	Month 
		timestamp#takedown timestamp#number#.ext 

Year is the the top most storage folder,
this goes down into the twelve months of the year.


From here, each folder contains articles and their images, 
named by a time stamp, and an incrementing number in 
case of multiple files with the same extension being submitted 
at the same time. 

Converter approaches: 
We can shift things by time stamp, and hope this works without 
breaking an unacceptably large number of the links. 

Create a program which mines the html files to find the linked 
images and preserves those links. 

Allow some poor work study student to convert the whole thing 
by hand. 

Dray is going to set up a development server and a repository for us to work 
from.
