Online filter archive

Permanent: "Online filter archive"
2nd July 2005

I have begun on the online filter archive, which is one of the things on my todo list concerning improvements to MPLF. There are three major parts to the archive:

The backing library, table architecture and moderation system.
A web interface.
An XML-RPC interface for the program to use.

The first and second items are finished, the web archive is currently accessible through the web interface at http://www.lokorin.com/mplf/archive.php. The interface is not yet amongst the MPLF project's links, but it will be there as soon as the program has support for it.

The archive is quite empty at the moment, I will however populate as I get suggestions about what filters I should populate it with. Also please note that the user interaction is a big part of the archive's design, users can submit their own filters to it via the archive's main page and they can also suggest changes to existing filters.

The moderation system is separated from the site's administration system so I can allow interested users to moderate the archive. If you are interested then please contact me.

So next up is the XML-RPC interface so that users can download and upload filters directly from MPLF. I will post another update when that is complete.
