| schestowitz-pi | if i were to implement: | Jan 07 16:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | would add option to exclude from extract, show me url | Jan 07 16:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | then update-tr or whatever | Jan 07 16:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | then it added it to the rss, index, gem, html, breadcrumb | Jan 07 16:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | so draft means "secret" page | Jan 07 16:05 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Ah. Good point. It should print the URL. Also, should the drafts | Jan 07 16:05 |
| techtrights-sec6 | be under Basic Auth or open to the world? I'd prefer the former to keep | Jan 07 16:05 |
| techtrights-sec6 | the bots out | Jan 07 16:05 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Right now the drafts go to a separate directory and that can be 'hidden' | Jan 07 16:05 |
| techtrights-sec6 | from the bots via a rudimentary password | Jan 07 16:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | it would be simpler with just "unannounced " url | Jan 07 16:06 |
| schestowitz-pi | bots would not see it anyway | Jan 07 16:06 |
| *ghostrider has quit (connection closed) | Jan 07 16:06 | |

| techtrights-sec6 | Bots finds /all/ directories in short order, whether linked or not. | Jan 07 16:07 |

| schestowitz-pi | nothing too sensitive | Jan 07 16:07 |
| schestowitz-pi | just not cam ready | Jan 07 16:07 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Not sensitive, just unfiinished and adding them to the search engine indexes | Jan 07 16:08 |
