Whats happened to Arch web site

I have been looking at what source version control system I could use to sync 
with a repository on my home network but also work offline on my laptop 
whilst on my travels.

Arch looks a good bet - but I am nervous.  Although debian unstable has a 
version 1.0pre16, it is dated May 2002 and all attempts to find Arch's home 
on the net seem to fail http://www.regexps.com seems to be broken.

Does anyone know - is the project still alive

I believe the original author, Tom Lord, ran out of funding -- which is a
shame, Arch was one tool that I would have really like to have seen come to
fruition.

If you are interested in next generation version control systems, do take a
look at Subversion (first hit on Google), they are nearing a 1.0 release
soon.

I already did, but for what I need it doesn't seem to provide it.  

I want to 

a) have a repository on my server at home - and then pull local copies of the 
code to my desktop machine and/or my laptop.

b) during the week, I am away from home - working in hotels.  I want to make 
revision controlled changes purely on my laptop.  I may want to make several 
branches going in different directions as I explore things.

c) when I return home at the end of the week I want to sync the various 
repositories.

d) if I am working on my desktop, these changes will also need to be synced to 
the repository.

It seems that arch can do this, but it doesn't look like subversion provides 
this level of distributed repository.

They are different tools, as you noticed, definitely look at both.
I have noticed some kind of friction between the two, like they are competing or
something. Both are good, they are different.

the maintainer has had money problems nad has been out of work for a while.  I 
believe he was looking for someone else to pick up the project, at least 
temporarily.  I unsubscribed from his list after getting fed up with his 
constant pleas for money.

It appears a group of users have picked up development, they've had several releases
since the pre16 mentioned before.

This is the new site:

This is the new list:
http://www.fifthvision.net/open/bin/view/Arch/ArchUsers

Here is the download page:

Most recent release:
http://superbeast.ucsd.edu/~landry/larch/arch-landry-1.0pre4.tar.gz

I believe you can do it with Subversion with a little effort, but
consult their development list for advice. You can dump and reload
individual changes in a repository, thus allowing you to have a separate
repository on your laptop and sync it later. AIUI, anyway.
