http://www.diglib.org/preserve.htm

are the way we have to conserve our software much of it masterpieces and also not ones but no for that less important code.So if you have a coding piece like a demo that can run in any emulator avalaible by this institutions you can apply to store there to have avalaible for anyone in the future not just you tube.

Wayback Machine

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wayback Machine logo
The Wayback Machine is a digital time capsule created by the Internet Archive non-profit organization, based in San Francisco, California. It is maintained with content from Alexa Internet. This service allows users to see archived versions of web pages across time—what the Archive calls a "three dimensional index."
The name Wayback Machine is a reference to a segment from The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show in which Mr. Peabody and Sherman use a time machine called the "WABAC machine" to witness, participate in, and, more often than not, alter famous events in history.[1]

[edit]Growth and storage

Snapshots usually become available more than 6 months after they are archived or, in some cases, even later (up to 24 months, or even longer). The frequency of snapshots is variable, so not all updates to tracked web sites are recorded, and intervals of several weeks or years sometimes occur. Since August 2008 sites have to be listed on the Open Directory in order to be included.[2]
As of 2009 the Wayback Machine contained about 3 petabytes of data and was growing at a rate of 100 terabytes per month,[3] as compared with the 12 terabytes/month growth rate reported in 2003. The data is stored on PetaBox rack systems manufactured by Capricorn Technologies.[4]
In 2009, the Internet Archive migrated its customized storage architecture to Sun Open Storage, and hosts a new datacenter in a Sun Modular Datacenter on Sun Microsystems' California campus.[5]

[edit]Use in legal evidence

[edit]Civil litigation

[edit]Netbula LLC v. Chordiant Software Inc.

In a 2009 case Netbula, LLC v. Chordiant Software Inc., defendant Chordiant filed a motion to compel Netbula to disable the robots.txt file on its web site that was causing the Wayback Machine to retroactively remove access to previous versions of pages it had archived from Nebula's site, pages which Chordiant believed would support its case.[6]
Netbula objected to the motion on the ground that defendants were asking to alter Netbula's web site and that they should have subpoenaed Internet Archive for the pages directly.[7] However, an employee of Internet Archive filed a sworn statement supporting Chordiant's motion, stating that it could not produce the web pages by any other means "without considerable burden, expense and disruption to its operations."[6]
Magistrate Judge Howard Lloyd in the Northern District of California, San Jose Division, rejected Netbula's arguments and ordered them to temporarily disable the robots.txt blockage in order to allow Chordiant to retrieve the archived pages that they sought.[6]

[edit]Telewizja Polska

In an October 2004 case called "Telewizja Polska SA v. Echostar Satellite", a litigant attempted to use the Wayback Machine archives as a source of admissible evidence, perhaps for the first time. Telewizja Polska is the provider of TVP Polonia andEchoStar operates the Dish Network. Prior to the trial proceedings, EchoStar indicated that it intended to offer Wayback Machine snapshots as proof of the past content of Telewizja Polska’s website. Telewizja Polska brought a motion in limine to suppress the snapshots on the grounds of hearsay and unauthenticated source, but Magistrate Judge Arlander Keys rejected Telewizja Polska’s assertion of hearsay and denied TVP's motion in limine to exclude the evidence at trial.[8] However, at the actual trial, district Court Judge Ronald Guzman, the trial judge, overruled Magistrate Keys' findings, and held that neither the affidavit of the Internet Archive employee nor the underlying pages (i.e., the Telewizja Polska website) were admissible as evidence. Judge Guzman reasoned that the employee's affidavit contained both hearsay and inconclusive supporting statements, and the purported webpage printouts themselves were not self-authenticating.[9]

[edit]Patent law

The United States patent office and, provided some additional requirements are met (e.g. providing an authoritative statement of the archivist), the European Patent Office will accept date stamps from the Internet Archive as evidence of when a given Web page was accessible to the public. These dates are used to determine if a Web page is available as prior art for instance in examining a patent application.[citation needed]

[edit]Limitations of utility

There are technical limitations to archiving a website, and as a consequence, it is possible for opposing parties in litigation to misuse the results provided by website archives. This problem can be exacerbated by the practice of submitting screen shots of web pages in complaints, answers or expert witness reports, when the underlying links are not exposed and therefore can contain errors. For example, archives like the Wayback Machine do not fill out forms and therefore do not include the contents of e-commerce databases in their archives.[10]

[edit]Legal status

In Europe the Wayback Machine could be interpreted to violate copyright laws. Only the content creator can decide where his content is published or duplicated, so the Archive would have to delete pages from its system upon request of the creator.[11] The exclusion policies for the Wayback Machine can be found in the FAQ section of the site. The Wayback Machine also retroactively respects robots.txt files.
A number of cases have been brought against the Internet Archive for its Wayback Machine archiving efforts. See Internet Archive controversies and legal disputes.

[edit]Search engine links

In 2005, Yahoo! Search began to provide links to previous versions of pages archived on the Wayback Machine. [1]
