Yes, with some RO stuff, particularly that on user's own individual sites where they drift away, change ISPs, etc. > What I'll likely do then is close down the Sourceforge page.

I don't see the point? arcem.sf.net is the well-known place for it that has been referenced on the web, mailing lists, and Usenet over many years. Sourceforge is unlikely to disappear without notice anytime soon; it's not like a user's individual site mentioned above. The mailing lists work fine and have a decent archive interface on mail-archive.com. (sf.net's is awful.) Why break all those ties? I don't see any benefits. riscos.info's wiki already links to arcem.sf.net, perhaps a page for it is all that's needed if you're concerned about it being forgotten?
