i- Err bitreich.org 70
i- >> So what is gopher? Err bitreich.org 70
i- Err bitreich.org 70
i- Gopher here is an internet protocol, which was first Err bitreich.org 70
i- developed at the University of Minnesota. After its Err bitreich.org 70
i- short success, it declined, but is now striving again Err bitreich.org 70
i- to be used for its simplicity and hierarchy. For bet- Err bitreich.org 70

i- Err bitreich.org 70
i- >> Are there many alternatives among gopher daemons? Err bitreich.org 70
i- Err bitreich.org 70
i- Yes, there are many. Some are there due to historical Err bitreich.org 70
i- reasons, others have gone out of shape over time. One Err bitreich.org 70
i- of the most popular alternatives is pygopherd. Err bitreich.org 70
i- Err bitreich.org 70
i- >> How does Geomyidae compares to other implementa- Err bitreich.org 70
i- tions? Err bitreich.org 70
i- Err bitreich.org 70
i- Geomyidae offers a unique simple way of expressing go- Err bitreich.org 70
i- pher content. See the manpage or the examples in the Err bitreich.org 70
i- source for how .gph files are formatted. And it does Err bitreich.org 70
i- just what you want it to do. No strange abstraction Err bitreich.org 70
i- files like in the original gopher daemons are the de- Err bitreich.org 70
i- fault way. In the newest release of Geomyidae compat- Err bitreich.org 70
i- ibility scripts were added. But those are to preserve Err bitreich.org 70
i- the unique history of gopher. Err bitreich.org 70
i- Err bitreich.org 70
i- >> Did Geomyidae have significant evolutions since the Err bitreich.org 70
i- beginning? Err bitreich.org 70
i- Err bitreich.org 70
i- Yes. Originally Geomyidae was named gopherd for Plan Err bitreich.org 70
i- 9. It then was ported over to Linux. On Linux it was Err bitreich.org 70
i- renamed to Geomyidae. During that development much Err bitreich.org 70
i- has happened: There were significant speedups (due to Err bitreich.org 70
i- the patches and work of other people!), features were Err bitreich.org 70
i- added especially in new dynamic content handling. You Err bitreich.org 70
i- can easily see all features in the documentation and Err bitreich.org 70
i- especially the simple manpage. Err bitreich.org 70
i- Err bitreich.org 70
i- >> Does Geomyidae work with all gopher clients? Err bitreich.org 70
i- Err bitreich.org 70
i- Yes. Geomyidae supports the original protocol from Err bitreich.org 70
i- the beginning, up to modern gopher with TLS. For the Err bitreich.org 70
i- intermediary gopher+ protocol there is a compatibility Err bitreich.org 70
i- layer. Err bitreich.org 70

i- Err bitreich.org 70
i- >> How does gopher help with privacy? Err bitreich.org 70
i- Err bitreich.org 70
i- The gopher protocol has the unique property that all Err bitreich.org 70
i- data you send over the line can be easily controlled Err bitreich.org 70
i- and seen. This is different to HTTP, where headers, Err bitreich.org 70
i- HTML and Javascript got so complex, it is uncontrol- Err bitreich.org 70

i+ the Atlantic Ocean. Err bitreich.org 70
i Err bitreich.org 70
i- The technology used is simple. Gopher does not allow Err bitreich.org 70
i- requests, which begin with the first bytes of a TLS Err bitreich.org 70
i- request. So any proper and old gopher daemon will Err bitreich.org 70
i- simply refuse the connection. Then the client is free Err bitreich.org 70
i- to reconnect without TLS based on its security config- Err bitreich.org 70
i- uration. Any ISDN line will handle such probing re- Err bitreich.org 70
i- quests for TLS easily. Err bitreich.org 70

i+____________________________________________________________ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ This project existed since a while, and kept improv- Err bitreich.org 70
i+ ing. In this interview with 20h, he shows us what Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Geomyidae's got under the hood. Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ >> What is Geomyidae? Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Geomyidae is a Unix/Linux daemon/service serving the Err bitreich.org 70
i+ gopher protocol. Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ >> So what is gopher? Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Gopher here is an internet protocol, which was first Err bitreich.org 70
i+ developed at the University of Minnesota. After its Err bitreich.org 70
i+ short success, it declined, but is now striving again Err bitreich.org 70
i+ to be used for its simplicity and hierarchy. For bet- Err bitreich.org 70
i+ ter visual display of your gopher experience, use Err bitreich.org 70
i+ something like links, lynx or sacc. Those are gopher Err bitreich.org 70
i+ clients. Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ >> How does Geomyidae help with getting started with Err bitreich.org 70
i+ gopher? Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ The installation of Geomyidae is very simple. You can Err bitreich.org 70
i+ setup your Geomyidae right away: Err bitreich.org 70
i+____________________________________________________________ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ git clone git://bitreich.org/geomyidae Err bitreich.org 70
i+ cd geomyidae Err bitreich.org 70
i+ make Err bitreich.org 70
i+ curl -s gopher://localhost:7070 Err bitreich.org 70
i+____________________________________________________________ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Yes, curl supports gopher! And it supports gopher and Err bitreich.org 70
i+ TLS too! Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ >> Are there many alternatives among gopher daemons? Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Yes, there are many. Some are there due to historical Err bitreich.org 70
i+ reasons, others have gone out of shape over time. One Err bitreich.org 70
i+ of the most popular alternatives is pygopherd. Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ >> How does Geomyidae compares to other implementa- Err bitreich.org 70
i+ tions? Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Geomyidae offers a unique simple way of expressing go- Err bitreich.org 70
i+ pher content. See the manpage or the examples in the Err bitreich.org 70
i+ source for how .gph files are formatted. And it does Err bitreich.org 70
i+ just what you want it to do. No strange abstraction Err bitreich.org 70
i+ files like in the original gopher daemons are the de- Err bitreich.org 70
i+ fault way. In the newest release of Geomyidae compat- Err bitreich.org 70
i+ ibility scripts were added. But those are to preserve Err bitreich.org 70
i+ the unique history of gopher. Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ >> Did Geomyidae have significant evolutions since the Err bitreich.org 70
i+ beginning? Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Yes. Originally Geomyidae was named gopherd for Plan Err bitreich.org 70
i+ 9. It then was ported over to Linux. On Linux it was Err bitreich.org 70
i+ renamed to Geomyidae. During that development much Err bitreich.org 70
i+ has happened: There were significant speedups (due to Err bitreich.org 70
i+ the patches and work of other people!), features were Err bitreich.org 70
i+ added especially in new dynamic content handling. You Err bitreich.org 70
i+ can easily see all features in the documentation and Err bitreich.org 70
i+ especially the simple manpage. Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ >> Does Geomyidae work with all gopher clients? Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Yes. Geomyidae supports the original protocol from Err bitreich.org 70
i+ the beginning, up to modern gopher with TLS. For the Err bitreich.org 70
i+ intermediary gopher+ protocol there is a compatibility Err bitreich.org 70
i+ layer. Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ >> Has NSA inserted a backdoor onto Geomyidae? Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ I am not allowed to tell you. Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ >> How does gopher help with privacy? Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ The gopher protocol has the unique property that all Err bitreich.org 70
i+ data you send over the line can be easily controlled Err bitreich.org 70
i+ and seen. This is different to HTTP, where headers, Err bitreich.org 70
i+ HTML and Javascript got so complex, it is uncontrol- Err bitreich.org 70
i+ lable. See the gopher onion project [1] for how to Err bitreich.org 70
i+ combine this with tor for total privacy and anonymity. Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Err bitreich.org 70
i+ >> Are there TLS support on some gopher clients al- Err bitreich.org 70
i+ ready? Err bitreich.org 70

i- such as Bluetooth, and disrecommand it for use by mil- Err bitreich.org 70

i+ The technology used is simple. Gopher does not allow Err bitreich.org 70
i+ requests, which begin with the first bytes of a TLS Err bitreich.org 70
i+ request. So any proper and old gopher daemon will Err bitreich.org 70
i+ simply refuse the connection. Then the client is free Err bitreich.org 70
i+ to reconnect without TLS based on its security config- Err bitreich.org 70
i+ uration. Any ISDN line will handle such probing re- Err bitreich.org 70

i+ >> Did Geomyidae have to adapt itself to the gopher Err bitreich.org 70
i+ protocol? Did it make gopher change? Err bitreich.org 70
i Err bitreich.org 70
i- Nontheless, wireless is fun, beautiful, and filled Err bitreich.org 70
i- with culture. While marketting pushed engineers from Err bitreich.org 70

i- garage door openners and remotely controlled drones... Err bitreich.org 70
i+ Geomyidae changed the part of gophespace it was able Err bitreich.org 70
i+ to reach. Many servers run on Geomyidae. There is Err bitreich.org 70
i+ software written just for Geomyidae and its gph for- Err bitreich.org 70
i+ mat. The TLS extension of the protocol came from Bi- Err bitreich.org 70
i+ treich / Geomyidae. We also set the standard to sim- Err bitreich.org 70
i+ ply use UTF-8 as default representation in gopher Err bitreich.org 70
i+ menus and so bring it into the 21st century. I can Err bitreich.org 70
