Is QuakeSrc.org ever coming back up?

Does anyone know what happened? I went on vacation, came back and it was completely gone. I tried to grab the domain name, but it seems Ender got it back. Are there any plans for getting it back online? As far as tutorials are concerned, I probably have a copy of those somewhere on my backup disks, but not a recent forum dump.

As far as I can remember the tutorial page stated they were covered by the GNU FDL (.) However, I don't think we ever asked any of the authors for permission to publish their tutorials under the FDL.

Tutorials were GPL and text was FDL

I seem to remember this was to prevent unscrupulous third-parties ripping tutorials from the site and using them in closed-source projects.

The old tutorials page is here: http://web.archive.org/web/200701101039 ... orials/old

Ya but the good stuff is in the discussions, they look to be all there, you just have to sift threw thousands of pages and re-assemble them, cause the archive didnt link them together correctly.
