Dear all,
I am very pleased to announce the open source release of our SiteStory
transactional web archiving solution. The solution is compatible with
the Memento "Time Travel for the Web" framework and its current
implementation can be used to archive Apache web servers.
Information about SiteStory is available via
http://mementoweb.github.com/SiteStory/ and the code is accessible via
https://github.com/mementoweb/SiteStory. A Google group dedicated to
discussions pertaining to SiteStory is at
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/sitestory. Please give the
software a try and share feedback on the list.
Information about transactional web archiving is available via

Library for the actual SiteStory development;
