Hello everyone,

Server suffered a HDD failure a few days ago (around 20260611). Through an unfortunate chain of events, the backup server also went down.

Current status: evaluating migration options.
-Try to put everything up as it is on a new server
-Begin a fresh forum based on Discourse, keeping the current forum in read-only mode for archival reasons
-Keep SMF as our ongoing platform, install a new instance and import the db (takes some work, issues solvable)
-Mediawiki MUST be updated to latest version whatever we choose, this will be a project on its own (got to research the upgrade path).

20260617: files were audited, from those that could be saved only a very tiny percentage was corrupted
20260614: all data and files that could be saved were extracted from the server. Database backups (wiki+forum) appear fine.
20260612: server online again, but degraded
