Nicu: No structure makes this unsuitable for inclusion now. Apart from that there is no stable URL to refer to. Honestly, I have no idea how do you categorize images. Can you enlighten me on how does your infrastructure look like? Do you have a public VCS repository where can the images be checked out from? And the metadata such as author, description, copyright and category -- are they kept in the SVG file, or in a separate place? I agree the structure is a mess, but there is nothing *I* can do about that, it needs some serious server side programming. Anyway, the Archlinux packager encouraged me to put this tarball as he intend to use it anyway. What do you understand by "stable URL"? Would you like better a monthly tarball? Images are added to the library every day, from tens to hundreds a day. The infrastructure is using ccHost - http://wiki.creativecommons.org/CcHost , a web application. We don't have any kind of VCS, AFAIK ccHost does not offer this feature. The metadata is kept in ccHost's database. The old website used to save the metadata also inside the SVG (nobody patched yet support for this into ccHost and we migrated a couple of years ago with the hope to add it "soon") but this is not useful for realtime work, searches and such so we used in addition a directory structure, which is suboptimal: in release 0.18 there are a lot of duplicates, images with multiple keywords kept in suplicate directories corresponding to various keywords. Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Is there any progress on including openclipart 0.19? This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle. Changing version to '12'.

Fedora 12 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
