Hey, heard through the moto-grapevine that Eskimo North is down? Anybody
know anything?
Things look really bad, both for eskimo.com users and for Robert. I'm
surprised this news hasn't hit earlier.
The thread is here:

The gist of it is that it looks like Bob was convicted of incest on
10/28 and is serving 46 months in Shelton. You can search King County
and State DOC records for 'Robert Dinse'.
Noone is sure of where the equipment is or who has control of it.
I'm sad about this. I used to used Eskimo as a BBS, then as a dialup
customer, host for my first domains and UUCP account. Robert didn't seem
like the kind of guy who would leave all his customers hanging, even
with the serious problems he is facing. I would have expected some kind
of warning or backup plan to be in place.
