Ahoy Geminauts!
Yesterday I converted the core Gemini documents, i.e. the protocolspecification, FAQ and best pratices documents, into the text/geminiformat, as only seems appropriate! The Gopher version of the officialsite now serves text/plain versions derived from the new text/geminioriginals using `fmt -s` to wrap lines. The HTTPS version similarlyserves text/html versions derived from the text/gemini originals using aMarkdown converter and a little bit of sed. The CSS styling of thewebsite has also been changed to make reading these long docs a littlemore comfortable.
As part of this change, some URLs have changed. Rather than the URLsending in .txt for all three protocols, they now end in .gmi, .txt or.html as appropriate. Also, the specification now lives atspecification.*** rather than spec-spec.***. Redirects and symlinksshould avoid the breakage of any existings links or bookmarks, but ifyou notice anything broken, please let me know!
Some changes to the actual content of the FAQ have also been made.
I will make some spec changes later today - nothing which has notalready been discussed here on the list.
Cheers,Solderpunk
