Ok. I see. Thanks. Maybe he should make the copy available to those who do not have internet. This would be a treasurte trove for kids living in revering communities where the intenet does not reach.
You should at least try. Put up a zipped copy in split files on archive.org and other sites. Try to keep the copyright information in tact. Everything as possoble. I do not think the admins will mind. I think the admins need to look into a new site design that allows archiving without login information. This way someone can download the entire site offline. There are use cases like in countries that do not have reliable internet or no internet at all. Something they should consider. The site is really nice.
I agree with you. It is a shame that this site will not be archived. The admins tried but they cannot seem to be able to archive it. It think it is wordpress. I am a little busy these days and hopfully in the future I can find a way to crawl the website without affecting the site. I did this for survivorlibrary. I have a script that can download updated books without even the site owner noticing. It can be done but I do not have the time now. Hopefully I get some time in the future to do it. Lets hope for the best. This site is an asset to the open source community and I want to see it preserved in the event the powers that be try to take down the internet.
I am wondering after the microsoft update bug then it should open many peoples eyes on the fragility of the internet. I think the sysadmins should look into moaking the site offline because things will get worse. I think the sysadmin should talk to kiwix about making a offline version of the site. I am sure they would assist and host it for you.
I am a little bit busy right now working on the debian dvd. I am porting all the apps from web to binaries an makeing new apps for the king james bible. Its alot of work. I will not get a chance to work on a web scraper for your site right now. Also I need to get some additional storage since I do not know the size of your site. Don't have the cash at the moment for that. I guess by thge time I get the external storage the sys admins might figure out a solution to the is problem. I will say this in final. This site should be preserved on the wayback machine because of its uniqueness and important role to the open source community. It is a valuable treasure.
I might not do the webscraper. The options with using a backup the site offline and removing the user accounts or disabling them could work. Its is up to you.
Take a look at survivorlibrary. I have all the books offline in pdf organized by category. I have the ability to download the html contents of each category page and get the pdf links and download them into the revelant folder. The html pages are small footprint. I do this evert 2 weeks to see if he puts up anything. If your site was organized like this then I could build succh a tool for your site.
I still think having an offline version of your site would be wonderful because you could upload it to archive.org and people can go there to get the downloads. That way your main site is not affected. It is up to you on what you decide. I will not scrape your website because it is not setup like the survivorlibrary.
We need to act faster because soon they will lock down the internet.

Look at what they have available. OpenGameArt.org could be on the list.
