I've created the new site - I will fix all the links to new assets
hosted on the site (there are a lot) - kill the dead links and do an
update (latter over time) - things have changed since 1998 (a lot).

Anyone wanting to send resources old and new for inclusion is very
welcome to off-list to this email address (inbox has 10MB single message
limit)

assets at fullthrust dot net

  Its my page, I'm still here - I'm moving it to Google sites - I have
all the original assets that were hosted and some of it linked to other
resources (on the insistence of the owners, who some are now long dead)

Note the FAQ has been moved to Google sites (its a link in the footer
of www.fullthrust.net ) - and as sites is a collborative Wikki tool
anyone interested who has a Google account can ping me and I will add you as a
collaborator to the FAQ. Its actually a good system for collaborative web site
building and very easy to use. There is a questions form on the FAQ site that
I did a week or so ago to collect
questions. A bigger job is going through the list - but it's all in
Gmail and it has good tools got search and it's fast.

  The plans for computer core are the same - it's a wikki and those who
want access can have rights to add stuff to the site.

I'm hoping Google keeps going longer than the other free hosting sites
- who are now all but gone! Also Google have a easy out promise for all
user data so that means the site can be archived and moved if required.

Are there any resources actually stored there, or is it just a links page?
I've used it recently and would agree it's not something we should lose.

http://mail.csua.berkeley.edu:8080/mailman/listinfo/gzg-lGreat please
send them to *assets **at** fullthrust **dot** net*

You should get an ack from the address.

For example anyone got the phalon & sa'vasku shipbits?

I've found quite a lot of the missing resources in way back machine but some
stuff eludes me.

*Please* also look in your dusty drawers and see if you have anything of use
for the new site and of course new stuff.
