Backup download -where?

Migrated topic.
I don't know but I have many pages completely saved as a web page archive. I just used the save as command in safari.
 
Mods, I don't think there is an offline version of Nexus forums/ Wiki..right? In this case, i think it would def be very helpful to have one. People without internet access could read the important files, and stay in touch with Nexus:wink: But most importantly, people will be able to download this site's contents and have it accessible if the site's server is broken. Also, if in-case, some bastard decided to shut Nexus down (*touch wood*), even temporarily, the offline backup would serve a priceless function..
I'm sure you mods must've thought about this (perhaps you already have an offline backup accessible only to you), but i would love to see a place where any nexian (especially promoted members) can download this offline copy.
would love to hear your thoughts on this..

Currently a full backup of the DMT-Nexus is placed offsite regularly to many different places. This in case the server ever get's 'broken'.

A full offline backup of the DMT-Nexus won't be available to other people since the compressed backup is already over 3GB! When people en masse start downloading this backup the server gets a little bit overused. ;)

I hope you can understand this.


Kind regards,

then maybe we could make a torrent ? or some of us could upload it in parts to a free hosting website like megaupload ?
you can upload up to 700mb with megaupload.i wouldnt mind uploading parts of the archive.


I forgot to mention that anyone thinking of uploading to these free hosting websites should register themselves to their websites so their files arent deleted.

i see, makes sense Trav, we wouldn't wanna overload the server, and 3GB+ is a big file indeed. What about just the Wiki?

sigmund's idea seems good too. Perhaps the Nexus Wiki could be uploaded to these free-hosting sites, and we can just put the link for it here; anyone who wants to download it can do so through bypassing the Nexus website entirely..wat do ya think..?
