DMOZ importing
Anyone know of a fairly easy & quick way to import select categories from DMOZ? I am running on links sql 2.05

I want the society & recreation sections.

thanks

Hello,
I know how :) - i write a script which does it - if you want i can give it to you :) (only for $5 :))
Or i can do all the work for you, but it would cost $10.

Best wishes,
Anton.

Yes, of couse, but you know - all dmoz.rdf is 150 Mb, and nph-import.cgi will work hardly several hours and may hang up...

My script extracts what you need from dmoz.rdf, and after you can use nph-import.cgi.

Yeah, so does mine. You still need a decent server though to be able to cut it up ready for nph-import though. And actually, the RDF file is 900Mb Wink
