I've dipped into Gemini to see if it was worth adding to my gopher client[1], but the defined spec is vague and barely complete. I subscribed to their mailing list, and it's really busy - the spec is clearly in flux and developing

I've just tried on the YOAST generated sitemaps for Wordpress and.... it works. But it just shows you a nested tree based on url depth using / as a delimiter - what it doesn't do is traverse the site or anything. Still, it&#x
