WebAnts(tm) - Cooperative Information Discovery and Retrieval

The WebAnts(tm) project is an effort to develop efficient information discovery and retrieval for the World Wide Web using the mechanism of cooperative agents.

We also hope to establish a mailing list for the discussion of cooperative web indexing sometime (real soon now... sorry for the delay).

News: WebAnts is a founding member of Braustübl', a collective of web indexers, established during the Third WWW Conference in Darmstadt, Germany, in April 1995.

Any comments would be appreciated.
