			<![CDATA[Yes, a very unfortunate bit of bad news. Some very useful info on there will now be lost. All those items that people have bookmarked will be lost. Hopefully someone will be able to permanently archive the lot at least.<br /><br />Better still, hopefully there will be a change of mind.]]>

			<![CDATA[I would be happy to support the return of ebuild on a "Not for profit" basis. It was too good a resource to loose. <br /><br />I'm not that IT savy (once upon a time I was and that was in the days of NT4!) but my company has a full time IT team of 4 who could assist. <br /><br />I however have no means by which to contact the owner/administrator of ebuild so if you're reading this or know how to do so please feel free to drop me a private message. <br /><br />To be absolutely clear I have NO commercial interest (I have enough to do thanks!) but would love to see it survive.]]>

			<![CDATA[They appear to have banned EC2 IPs which is a bit of a bummer if I want to mirror this site. Don't want to do it from my own computer, we have bandwidth limitations!<br /><br />Anyone know how big the site is once downloaded, including images?<br /><br />Could try Digital Ocean et al but it's a bit of an effort if they are banned too. Anyone from ebuild listening that could whitelist one specific EC2 IP?]]>

			<![CDATA[Any implications with copyright etc?<br /><br />Having said that I am currently doing a test download now onto a home PC - so I can let your know the size. Any legal bods can tell me whether I've broken any laws. It's for personal use - losing all the the info and useful contributions on that site is painful. Hopefully it can either be re-resurrected or archived permanently.]]>

			<![CDATA[Its circa 16Gb if you look at the whole site - depending on how you would want to extract the data then using it for anything but personal use would need you to get the approval of DB as the owner of Webguides. I know some of the content was listed as copyright to others.]]>

Then only they, you (and, I assume, the forum administrator) can read the comment.]]>
