Re PlanetSourceCode

[innww]

some people should reach out and ask if he would be willing to put the code and database into the public domain for the community if it no longer has commercial value. Still has a lot of educational value. I did email him this, but got no response, dunno if he got it or not, but several other requests wouldnt hurt.

If he doesnt have the time then we can offer to try to salvage what we can from the PSC CD's if we get permission.

I did ask him if he could get a "public database to secure the knowledge and intellectual property" the same day. I will let everyone know what he says. I even personally offered to move the databases and information to a server I control and pay for it simply for the knowledge to be shared and kept.

Perhaps he could agree with that.

I also said perhaps we can crowd fund / donate to help subsidize the cost (community RUN website) entirely. Hope he does agree.
We can salvage quite a bit if we worked hard but the websites database would be intact it's just a matter of moving everything. The DVDs/CD's stopped a while ago though right? Granted there wasn't a TON comparatively there were still plenty of contributions.


I do want us to let him know we will miss it and see if we can do anything to help; But I also don't want him to get 1000s of emails complaining because then he will regret the correspondences. That email is his personal/business email.
