[gopher] Yioop GPLv3 Search Engine now supports gopher (fwd)

[Cameron Kaiser]

Sent to me by the maintainer (who, by coincidence, was one of my math TAs
many years ago in undergrad). The search engine is open-source, so if you
were interested in running your own gopher search engine but were a little
wary of Jughead or the old Veronica source, you can try this.

Hi Cameron,

If you go to yioop.com then settings and select Gopher Test Sep 12 and click
save then go back to the search page and search, you'll get my test crawl
that started with a list of 30 gopher sites. I didn't force the crawl to stay on gopher
sites and it seemed after the first 50 thousand or so pages it was mainly crawling
http sites, but for some search you get a flavour of the gopher results. For
example, if you search on the word gopher or floodgap you definitely get gopher
results. It did make page caches, I'll get around tomorrow to figure out why they aren't
showing up right now.

Best,
Chris
