Christian Zimmermann writes > The "search path to" button does not seem to yield any result. I have seen this bug appear before, but it has never been clear to me why it appears. Usually a restart of the icanis server---which handles queries submitted to the web---fixes the issue. I did an o/s upgrade on the server, and rebooted, it seeems to have fixed. BTW, the complete data, with all the paths is available if you want it. -- Cheers, Thomas Krichel http://openlib.org/home/krichel skype:thomaskrichel

Do you have a script somewhere which would work for pairs of names? No, but I have the data. Let's look at at example icanis@katri:~/icanis/input$ grep Krichel ras_mans_nodes_1416097129.xml <node ref="pkr1" name="Thomas Krichel" homepage="http://openlib.org/home/krichel"/> icanis@katri:~/icanis/input$ grep Askitas ras_mans_nodes_1416097129.xml <node ref="pas55" name="Nikos Askitas" homepage="http://www.iza.org/home/askitas"/> This gives us the handle, from there we can find the paths in two ways. icanis@katri:~$ grep 'pas55$' icanis/paths/ras/biwe/k/r/1/paths 5 pzi1 pur18 psc166 pzi13 pas55 icanis@katri:~$ grep 'pkr1$' icanis/paths/ras/biwe/a/s/55/paths 5 pzi13 psc166 pur18 pzi1 pkr1 I use the latest of the two path files that I can grep. That's how the search works. BTW, there are close to 1 billion paths. > The search cgi you have now works for Name and handle or for two > handles. Yes, I should write an interface for two. > 3.

Would you share ALL the coauthorship data with me? Sure. Currently I don't have a backup of the paths, since they can be recomputed. But it would take a very long time. If you would provide a backup for me that would help me.

Write as many or as few as you like. Three additional points. (1) If you can calculate summary statistics on the network, I can use them in the web site. The site is written using XSLT, so an XML file with the stats will be perfect. (2) I have taken liberty to add you to the Collec-run mailing list. You are the sixth member on the list. It has very little traffic, but all correspondance about CollEc should be sent there. (3) I was in Cologne at GESIS between October 13 and 31. I hiked even do the Rheinsteig between Bonn and the Drachenfels on 25th October so I could have met you. But I had forgotten about you, sorry. I am back in NYC now, homeless and jobless, so if you have a consultancy opportunity I would look into it. I will probably be back at GESIS at some stage. -- Cheers, Thomas Krichel http://openlib.org/home/krichel skype:thomaskrichel
