-
- Yes, wuarchive (the main AmiNET site!) is down, and has been for a while
- now.
-
- Yes, the 'recent' directory is empty, as files won't be transferred around
- until wuarchive is back online.
-
- However, if you'll check the 'new' dir on laslo, and other AmiNET sites,
- they have removed the protections for the duration of the problem. Just
- check there for new files.
-
- Caveat Emptor: Any files you grab from the 'new' dir have probably NOT
- been checked for viruses, etc., so "USE AT YOUR OWN RISK".
