Ada and Software Engineering Library Version 2

Ada and Software Engineering Library Version 2

[Dick Gayler]

We have been hosting Ada and Software Engineering Library Version 2 but 
the person who helped maintain the site is no longer affiliated with 
KSU.  Thus, we are in the process of "pulling the plug" on the site.  Is 
this site frequently used and is there anyone who would like to takeover 
hosting the site?

Thanks.

I don't think it is all that frequently used but it would be a shame of 
anything was lost. There is probably a lot of duplicate/old files there 
that are already  hosted elsewhere. (e.g. some old versions of GNAT).

I may try to pull it down and sort through it but I don't currently have 
the resources to host it.

Maybe it could become part of Adapower or Ada World? I remember St�phane 
Richard saying he had lots of space.

There are probably numerous links the site. Please don't break those if 
it can be avoided. If someone takes over hosting, will you set up 
redirections (HTTP response 301)?

I've been sending you a mail with a request for further information on
status and possible obligations etc. involved. Since I haven't got any
feedback yet: Has the mail arrived?

FWIW, since a very long time Ada-Belgium has provided a complete mirror
of the "Ada and Software Engineering Library Version 2 (ASE2)" on our
ftp-server.

The starting point is:
<ftp://ftp.cs.kuleuven.ac.be/pub/Ada-Belgium/cdrom/index.html>

Anyone who has links to this library is invited to redirect to the
Ada-Belgium mirror.  I will keep the ASE2 directory on-line as a
permanent archive of this library.

You have my heartfelt thanks. I appreciate your public service, since
the original site has gone offline in the meantime and communication
with Dick Gayler has stalled again (probably only for technical
reasons, some mail seems to be dropped),
