Who owns your data?Who owns your data?Posted May 18, 2012 1:57 UTC (Fri) by steffen780 (guest, #68142)Parent article: Who owns your data?
Seeing how LWN was specifically mentioned.. is there a way to download LWN archives? It doesn't have to be current to the day, nor even up to the point where articles are free, but would it be possible to make yearly archives of e.g. everything up to the year before the last completed year, ie. currently up to and including 2010? Bonus points if it includes the comments :)
Even more bonus points if it's under a free or CC license (I say "or" because for this I'd consider NC-ND perfectly acceptable, though I'm not a huge fan of that one).
Alternatively, could we get an official ok for using a script/tool to (slowly) run through the archives and download everything? Feels naughty to just download it all.

I'd be interested in this as well. (And yes, it'd be naughty to just download it all -- the admins would probably suspect you were an attacker and block your IP ;)).

We have enough people doing that as it is for no real reason that I can figure out.We have various schemes for improving access to the archives. A lot of things are on hold at the moment, unfortunately, but stay tuned, we'll get there.
