Wanted Feature: Better homepage detection

Although the project robot is very impressive, one thing it frequently gets wrong is the project homepage. When it finds the project on freshmeat, if it would use the homepage (and download) links specified by freshmeat, the results would probably be more correct than the current (google-search based?) ones are.

We’re working on making the Robot better, it is based on various factors including Google, however the Freshmeat robots.txt forbids robots from following their homepage and download links. —Alex)

reply to alex: I don’t think you need to follow the freshmeat link in order to get useful information. James Stansell

I’ll do some tests to see if we can get good data this way – Alex

I did some tests to determine this, and it’s actually pretty tricky. There seems to be no easy way to determine whether Freshmeat or Google is right in a name conflict, thus it’s not easy to pick freshmeat’s link over Google’s. – Alex
