wiki.maemo.org : current archive and future
 

Hi,

Tell me if I am wrong but I feel a bit scared of the future of maemo.org and meego.com ...

let me explain, http://wiki.meego.com went down and is still offline for a week , and yesterday http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com is b0rken ...

So I feel it is safe to coordinate some backups .... this thread is not for that , just check :

https://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Mee...frastructure_:

Let's focus *ONLY* on the wiki contents :

Before we start hammering the webserver ... do you know tools to backup the wiki ? I planned to use wget or httrack . but something specific to mediawiki may exists already ...

Then If I have no suggestions or solutions I will try to crawl and dump contents in a couple of days ... ie : 2012-11-13 (but I can delay this)...

The question is now would it be possible to publish an archive of the backup, it seems not :

http://maemo.org/legal/terms_of_use/

Tell me if I am doing it wrong ...

License of Maemo wiki is CC-BY-SA. So to push backup is legal.

Great move rzrfreefr. You seems to be the only one that acts on the countdown. Not sure what I can do to help you...

How much space would be needed to back these up?

Re: wiki.maemo.org : current archive and future
 

This is one of the things that the Hildon Foundation BoD will be handling as far as hand-over and transition goes isn't it? They may be able to get backups right from the source.

Still, not a bad idea to grab whatever backups we can get.

I haven't seen a single action from the directors yet. Are they elected are they looking in to the issues? what's plan or do the working with that plan at the moment? The clock is ticking. It's a countdown in place...
