Dear Michael,

I wrote Alex also an Email on 2007-10-16. It seems to be down since mid
of October. Looks like the site is lost and abandoned and should get moved.

AFAIK is was just a web-nntp client. This brings me to the idea of
building up a new site directly on the nntp/mailing list server.

This also would allow to switch the hostname of the mailinglists and the
nntp server to support.typo3.org

Unfortunately I have no clue about the resources needed for the website
and Alex is obviously not reachable. So if netfielders and others agree
I'm going to do some research for a web-application and install it on
lists.netfielders.de. Afterwards, the DNS entry can be changed.

Just an idea...

Thanks,

Luc
