Yeah I don't really mind continuing to host it -- in archived form it wouldn't be any burden. But I'll talk to people.

I'd vote for "both" - since I'd love you to be hosting the archive on the original domain for the moment, but I have more faith in them not Failing to Deal with Stuff than you (and were I in your shoes I'd be thinking the exact same thing about myself) - and, also, I'm kinda hoping the internet archive will outlast us both unless we get immortality soon enough.
Also, [insert gushing praise here], I loved k5 back in the day.

Del Griffin seems to be working on Scoop improving it on his Scoop site. He can run your Kuro5hin and maybe even fix the cancel button and other things. He's currently adding HTML tags and trying to fix the https links without the a href tag in autoformat.
I'll run it better. Turn it over to me. There's gold in the database that got censored on the site. I'll assume all legal liability.

Yeah Lulzara can't sue any more because he had a Vespa accident and died. So Crawford's diary on him could come back an be undeleted.
It tells the truth on technology companies and how they cheat software consulants out of money.

Hey Rusty! If you bring the site back online, we can archive it and push it into archive.org for permanent storage.
Just drop into #archiveteam on EFnet IRC and let someone know its ready for ArchiveBot to ingest when its back online.
