Wow, there's a blast from the past!

Freemap was of course one of the very first grassroots mapping sites (2004),
together with my geowiki.comĀ (2003 [1]), Jo and Schuyler's freemap.in
(2005?), and OpenStreetMap itself (2004).

We all converged on OSM sooner or later, but it's a worthwhile historical
detail to remember the early days.

Re: [Talk-GB] MapThePaths: possible interrupted service this week

2020-02-12 Thread Nick Whitelegg

... sorry for all the emails: but further update - it's now up, but running 
HTTP not HTTPS (as it used to).
Hopefully HTTPS will be enabled very soon.

Thanks,
Nick

Hello everyone,

To update: the site is transferred now but I am having some DNS issues 
(relating I think to IPv6 DNS records) meaning that the site is still 
inaccessible.
I have asked the new hosting provider about this; basically I want to run it as 
HTTPS but these DNS issues are preventing the certificate from being installed.

Apologies for the ongoing downtime, hopefully this will be resolved in the next 
day or so.

Thanks,
Nick

Hello everyone,

Just a heads-up: I am transferring MapThePaths to the same server I use to run 
my other projects, Hikar and OpenTrailView, this week.

This means that there may be interruption or unavailability in service, 
starting today.

Thanks,
Nick
