Hi all,

Thanks to Alex's incredible work to make it run again, the previous version of the etherpad database (a few minutes before the crash- around 13:30 UTC) was recovered, and it is available temporarily on:

If you want to recover some lost text, **you need to copy it manually from here and paste it into https://etherpad.wikimedia.org (the usual address)** We will **not** touch the current etherpad, as some of you have already added/recovered your texts.

Please resend this information to anybody that may find this useful, so no important data is lost.
