I'm sorry to say that no further floppy images can be processed. The time has come to set the archive to read only. Many thanks to all contributors, and especially to Wandrell and Moebius for their enormous dedication over the years!


Hi Mr Creosote,
could you tells us please a bit more about the reasons behind this decision? I hope it's only temporary.

If we as community can help, please tell us, e.g. starting a fund-raising for a larger HDD or server costs. :)

fuxxxyfloppy, please, don't worry about it. It was my mistake and Mr Creosote has got nothing to do with it other than having been mislead by my thoughtless actions. I take full responsibility for this and nevermind the details. We shall do our best to correct it soon. Happy Easter!

As Moebius said, please be patient until after Easter. We should be able to resume work then.

The underlying issue is one of workload. We have no redundancies in the webmaster team. If one drops out or is temporarily unavailable, there is nobody left to absorb the tasks.

Now you see the violence inherent in the system!
