 Does Paul maintain a web presence any longer? All the links to his pages 
that I have been able to find, fail...

Back in December last year, with Paul's permission, I mirrored the whole website just before Paul 'took it off the air':

 >> I've taken you at your word and installed a piece of software that has
 >> ~completely~ mirrored your site - painlessly!

> I hardly know what to say, but thanks! Judging from the mail I've 
> had there will be quite a number of people who appreciate that, as I 
> certainly do.

The plan was for Paul to review my mirror and send specific permission to have a link to it off my servers.
I sent Paul the URL and waited for the OK.  I've heard nothing to date.

 >> Once I have the content arranged and properly attributed on

 >> Moon-net (and others?) that it is still available and publish

> Yes, I will do that when you have it ready. I've received quite a

One of my reasons for requiring specific permission was that I did not want to appear, to the Moon-Net crowd, Paul's friends here,
as some sort of new-boy braggart and it was Paul's decision.

So I decided to wait.  And here is my first opportunity to ask everyone what they think I should do?


So, Bill and the crowd - the N1BUG site is here. It is ready to go.  If I am supported, I'll publish.
(It has to be a link off www.g1ogy.com because I do not control the N1BUG domain.)
It will be hosted on an aDSL circuit (at least at first) so the up-link (to you) will not be startling but I believe it is a
resource worth saving.

One more word (or two) from the mail between Paul and I  - just so that you-all understand too:

Yeas or nays Gentlemen?
