Sorry, I must have glanced over it quickly and though it was your post.

I recall the post well. I had not received any responses to e-mails before
or immediately after that post. I had also offered to assist.

I am certainly not bashing him or the efforts he initialy put in. I am
though very upset that he has allowed his site (one that is still being
mentioned in articles and other media) to become a detriment to the
community he once looked to benefit.

The least he could do is turn over the keys to those of us willing to fix
his site up, or give up the domain name so some one else can rebuild a site
in its place.

Well at least he is a billboard for the FSF of what can happen if... :-)
