Hi all!

I had announced that August 31st would be the deadline for retrieving backups from the toolserver. As you were right in telling me, hey, that's in the middle of everybody's vacation, the stuff is still there. But:

Come and get your backups before the end of September!

Once the toolserver is physically decommissioned, the data will be deleted! Gone. Forever.

And as stated before:

If you are interested in migrating, maintaining, resurrecting someone else's tools, please contact that person and ask first!

If you are contacted by others for you own code, I strongly encourage you to *free the knowledge* and let them work on it. (Yes, sometimes old work looks embarrassing nowadays, but it can always help others to figure things out, to get ideas, to improve tools. So for the "greater good"[TM] please free it.)

Thanks and cheers, Silke
