At the end of the day this has happened and there is no backup. I suspect if the site had been hosted by noodles there would have been a backup. I would trust him with my data any day. However this has happened and we have to make the best of it, lesson learned. Lets get some content on the wiki and move forward.

One key question, for all: Did *anyone*, in any recent years (the wiki hasn't changed a lot for a while) ever do a 'wget' on the site?
Unfortunately I didn't; but if anyone did then we have an opportunity to re-create at least some of it as it used to be.
Ted.
http://web.archive.org/web/20080505020846rn_1/www.alug.org.uk/wiki/ is the best that we have so far. May 2008 is the most recent but at lest some of it is there.
Cheers, BJ
Hmmm -- that URL gives me:
Not in Archive. No archived versions of the page you requested are available. If the page is still available on the Internet, we will begin archiving it during our next crawl.
You may want to: * Search for all pages on the site alug.org.uk/ * Try a different page address, at top
I have clicked on the "Search" link, and am still waiting for somthing to happen ...
I now also wonder if, recently, that site "did a crawl", found nothing (because "suspended"), and so now has nothing in its archive ... ?
Meanwhile, my browser is still "Waiting for web.archive.org..."
Hmmm. Ted.
