Take Searching Into Your Own Hands |
About the Deathwatch ProjectThe Deathwatch WebCrawler was an idea created by Matthew Walker to allow all users of the internet, currently only Win32 or 64 though, to have their own personal desktop WebCrawler. The vision was as such that a user could simply enter a search term and a home site and let it do its thing. This vision is coming together, and although version 1 still is a long way off, it is coming together nicely! Getting the Newest VersionAlthough we have not released any compiled versions of the crawler, we do have reference and source packages up for download, both through SourceForge's file release system, and the CVS repository. You cannot download the newest version from this site due to server restrictions, however as we release new packages, they will be updated on this page! Getting the SourceBecause Deathwatch is an open-source project, it has to be to get on SourceForge, you may get the source in a number of ways. The first, and arguably the hardest is to access the Deathwatch CVS repository, if you know your way around CVS then this is definitely the option for you. Alternatively, you can download the semi-current source from our project website on SourceForge, http://sourceforge.net/projects/deathwatch. What if I Want to JoinDepends on what you mean.
