Boat Anchor Manuals Archive--gone!

[Phil Hobbs]

Hi, all,

I just went to bama.edebris.com to download a manual, and the site is
gone. Anybody know a mirror?

It's still on archive.org, but you can't run wget on archive.org, so I
can't set up my own mirror.

Cheers

Phil Hobbs

Looks like this is the mirror:

"The main BAMA site is down due to major repairs and upgrades at
sbc.edu. A notice will be placed here when they are
completed. (9/17/2009)"

*BOING*.

The edebris.com domain has been renewed, and the web site is once
again reachable.

"There was much rejoicing".

And hopefully much wget-ing too

There would be even more rejoicing if they reinstated the Heathkit stuff.

Of course robots.txt disallows downloading the actual manuals. I
emailed the esteemed proprietor, Ed Kujawski, and asked permission to
mirror it.

Cheers

He doesn't want it mirrored. He says that some folks were selling
copies of the manuals on eBay. Why that matters when the manuals are
all other people's work in the first place escapes me, but oh, well.

It's still a great resource. I wrote a REXX program to download the
manuals I actually want and patch the HTML to match. (It's fully
manual, so it doesn't count as a robot.)

Cheers

What address are you using? The domain name is parked. The site address
( 208.91.197.132 ) only responds to ping, no http, no ftp.

There is ( hopefully ) a manual I'd like to have available there.

I like Kurt's manuals.

It appears bama is back at edebris again. I made sure by picking up a couple of files. Alive and well.
