small outsource project: change host for gnuTellaVision

M

Michael Douma

This is about a small subcontracting project. This is an interesting
project which produces interactive graphs of the gnutella network. We
are updating a python project written by students at Berkeley a few
years ago. This project is to switch from an out-dated data host to a
new one.

The following is a link to the source code for a python project which
makes radial maps of gnutella hosts:

http://www.sims.berkeley.edu/~rachna/courses/infoviz/gtv/source.html

The code theoretically works, and the maps look like this:

http://www.sims.berkeley.edu/~ping/gtv/

But the current code uses gnutellahosts.com. That host is not longer
active. The project is to make this code work again by using a new host
cache. Tasks:

1) Review the code to see the type of data the script requires.

2) Change the host from "gnutellahosts.com" to something else. See:
http://gcachescan.jonatkins.com/

NOTE: There is an alternative version of this project which you can
propose. You can propose bid to instead remove ALL gnutella-related
code, and generate a simple random node structure. We are more
interested in the animation and layout code than the gnutella code.

If you are interested, you can contact me at googlePython at ilibi dot
com , or you can see a posting of this project on the following job
board: http://www.scriptlance.com/projects/1129015210.shtml
