Then it was heavily spammed, and afterwards went completely offline for many months, and the admins have become busy. Luckily, in the past days I was able to restore some of the contents from the Wayback Machine, and place them here and here: * http://perl-begin.org/FAQs/freenode-perl/ - the Freenode #perl’s FAQ. * http://perl-begin.org/humour/ - a page collecting Perl Humour. I plan to restore more stuff. For how I restored it: I tried several scripts (and a CPAN module) I found online (which were hard to come by, and I was disappointed that apparently the Wayback Machine does not provide a Web API), and eventually used this script written in Python: http://code.activestate.com/recipes/286224-pulling-stuff-out-of-the-internet-archive-wayback-/ I had to modify it to not be recursive. Anyway, enjoy!
