Wayback software Memento compliant

[Herbert van de Sompel]

Hi all,

It's a great pleasure to be able to announce that the new version of the Internet Archive's Wayback software is now Memento compliant. Information is available at http://archive-access.sourceforge.net/projects/wayback/release_notes.html . This Wayback version complies with the current Memento Internet Draft available at http://www.mementoweb.org/guide/rfc/ID/ [1].

On behalf of the Memento team, I would like to sincerely thank our colleagues at the Internet Archive for making this happen! This is a big step forward for Memento.

Cheers

Herbert

[1] Full compliance with the exception of the optional interval indicator that can be conveyed in the Accept-Datetime header and that is not yet implemented by Memento clients either. See http://www.mementoweb.org/guide/rfc/ID/#accept-datetime
