This is what I have been trying to get people to understand...

We are too reliant on sites run and maintained by one individual - a long term approach is required to ensure that domain names, hosting and maintenance are retained in the long term without expecting a single over-worked individual (who may have family or health issues for example) to drop everything and get sites up and running, tackle spammers and other website attacks etc...

There has been some interest in people creating mirrors of sites, but in my opinion this is not the long term solution we require.

If you need an example of how things can go dramatically wrong, you just have to look at the mess surrounding the ZX Vega+ and Retro Computers Limited (RCL), where they have domain names (and Indiegogo campaigns) owned by former directors, websites hosted by other individuals and then when the directors have left and fallen out with the remaining management everything gets left in abeyance resulting in two of their web-domains now owned by people who are attacking the Company.....

His web site is still down, what happened? Is there any backup available somewhere (if not I think it is time to think about it being one of the more (most likely the most) comprehensive site with Sinclair QL information and
