It seems that one of the oldest resources for Eva stuff is now in the Internet graveyard. This one interview I sometimes plaster around everywhere now returns a 404 error: https://eva.onegeek.org/pipermail/evang ... 03855.html

It is still accessible through Web Archive, however, with very recent snapshots from less than a month ago.

http://web.archive.org/web/201903282033 ... 03855.html

I am asking this because I wonder if maybe there are a bunch of links to it in the Wiki or in the source archives or something that might need to be fixed and link to archived versions of the pages instead.

It looks like the site is trying to be back up online. There’s now a message there that says that the mailing list is back up, but that they are still missing some archives.

Trouble is that the links from the front page all 404, and the current front page is the same as it was 15 years ago -- https://web.archive.org/web/20040329131 ... egeek.org/ -- so there's no information about what''s going on now.

Correct.

Pipermail, which runs the list, is probably down because of a server upgrade or configuration change.

Having reached out to Tom Rothamel in the past about issues pertaining to privacy and list maintenance, he's generally given me the impression that he really doesn't want to bother with the ML, or to be bothered with the ML.

I don't suppose anyone has any sort of backup or can/is interested in somehow taking over for him? Or are we going to depend on Web Archive? I don't know what might be missing from there, and there is the aforementioned problem of many Onegeek sources being linked and used everywhere.
