It is gone by November 1st 2005
Can we harvest the content?
-
Checking the home page many short updates are present and can be ported

Many pages that say “read more” are missing the article ..
Really early in 2003 you can get content article by article
-
Looks like we could harvest by changing “sid” in URL:
