What happened to it?

Appears to have been hacked.

more than just that site.
http://www.travellerbibliography.org/
http://www.travellertrader.com/
http://www.downport.com/traveller/
http://www.downport.com/
as well though IIRC they're all sub-sites of the same main site, downport.com . (Swordy's sites?)

Yup those are Swordy's sites. They are all hosted on the same server, which is why they are all down.

Damn that sucks. I hope they didn't do any damage other than the front page.

Apparently, some of the data was moved around last night, or something like that. It's all still there, just needs to be put back where it ought to be.

Downport has gotten so huge that it must be quite a task managing the whole thing. I think Colin and Ron may have to rethink what the site should be; even though I think their vision rocks, I wonder if they've bit off more than they can chew.

Or perhaps it's just a matter of choosing some automation tools.

 

[Gruffty]

Just tried to look at site. Scumbag hackers....

 

[Malenfant]

Unroot crew?

Interesting. They took down the Celestia forums the other day too.

 

[Gruffty]

Hoorah! T5 site is back up!

 

[aramis]

But not functioning right....

 

[Gruffty]

Oh. Boo.

 

[aramis]

And its was down again tonight...

 

[robject]

I've set up my own T5 page, just to hold the PDFs and some in-progress characters being generated, at

[Jame]

Looks like the forum's down.?! (I was there a while ago, but left; my password kept being "forgotten" - change that, please!)

 

[Swordy]

Is anyone still experiencing problems with traveller5.com or the forums thereon?

 

[RainOfSteel]

The site comes up fine for me, right now (http://www.traveller5.com/index.php).
