I was reseraching a little bit and I found that this project is made in
python with Django. Is it possible that we can take this project and do an
implementation of our own?
The current implementation [1] is:
- Debian
- Postgres
- Django
- Python stack
And the stats (infrastructure requirements) [2] are:
- Storage:
- Application server:
- 1 GB General Purpose v1 Rackspace cloud server
- Number of user accounts: 6655
- Number of unique avatars: 6919 (355 MB)
- Static image server:
- 1 GB General Purpose v1 Rackspace cloud server
- Size of avatars on disk: 1.8 GB
- Traffic:
- Application server:
- Bandwidth: 328.31 MB
- Hits: 43,823
- Static image server:
- Bandwidth: 18.99 GB
- Total hits: 11,191,373
- Redirects (to Gravatar): 9,605,127
There is a long blog post [3] about why it's shutting down, but the link
that I found useful for possibly take this project is the development
environment [4].
It's just a question, maybe is too big to take it for the whole world, but
it looks like a great project for the Python SIG.
