Brion,
Is it possible to get a backup of the
ia.wikipedia that I could save on my
server, I've been after an archive for
a while and haven't gotten it yet, how
can I go about getting an archived
file of the ia.wikipedia data, and
could you help me get it, I know
you're probably up to the crown
of your head in other projects, but
I'd very much appreciate your answer.
Thanks,
Jay B.

BTW I just tried the ia.wikipedia and
I got the front page but then it gave me
a weird message saying I didn't have
the priviledge of using CGI on the server
when trying to access Recent Changes.
But the whole thing seems down once
more.
