Lets buy Arno some beers at debconf as a little thank you. Are you still in
The Hague as listed on mirrors.html?  Maybe they have reasonable beer as
well, I'll be there in a couple of weeks.  BTW why is there a link to
discover instead of Chris' homepage?  I think the pages need some attention,
last updated 1999/2000, potato is just released. Some of the links are
outdated: Geocities closed in 2009.

We can start a little collection at our next meeting perhaps, or is there a
way to donate money to linux-m68k? As DD a domain costs only 7 or 8EUR per
year, two beers...

A long time ago cvs.linux-m68k was hosted on kullervo (it's still pointing
there, but kullervo is not online). I tried to convert this to git, it is
now on people.d.o:
https://people.debian.org/~cts/m68kboot.git/
If the website is not too big (and if it is allowed by debian), we could put
a copy of it on a debian server. But something that could be editable by a
few more people (mabye not a CMS) would be nice to keep it a bit more up to
date?
