Yes, this looks very relevant, especially in terms of pre-existing code for some sites. > Another concept that I don't know anyone has made any attempt whatsoever to > tackle is a universal "personal Digital Asset Manager" which would include > integration with wherever a user wants to publish, and wherever user wants > to save stuff from. *nod* The more we go into asset management, the more it becomes challenging from a user experience perspective to really build something compelling (you'll want stuff like easy tagging, awesome search, shiny galleries, broad format support, possibly transcoding, etc.). I think the first release would just let you grab data from a bunch of sites for personal download as a proof of concept. Then we could add support for some repos with nice APIs and limited complexity (e.g. archive.org). Stuff like Wikimedia Commons which may require metadata editing & selection would come later. I'm starting to use http://wiki.okfn.org/Universal_Content_Liberation_Tool as a scratchpad, hope that's an OK use of the OK wiki ;). > Don't know if/how I can help but quite interested in the idea. I'm going to play a bit with http://electron.atom.io/ to get a first POC going and we can take it from there.
