Come back, c2.com, we still need you

I fixed it (rebooted the server).

Anecdotes: Ward (My dad) and I recently moved c2 off a server in a colo where it had lived for over a decade because the colo was closing. Now it lives in a cloud provider. It will live on. Eventually I envision It will get moved like the Agile Manifesto to a static site for long lived prosperity as a relic of the early internet.

Thank you; I'm glad that you're keeping c2 online.

Make sure it gets archived by an archive team not just hosted thanks

Agreed, Archive Team is great and I'm sure would appreciate working with the site owners for once rather than 'everything is on fire' mode

I would also ask the Kiwix folk to make and host a Zimit - https://youzim.it/ will make one, but they also host the more popular stuff themselves at https://download.kiwix.org/zim/.

Maybe collaborate with Jason Scott? His textfiles.com and c2 wiki do seem philosophically interlinked in a way.

Can I suggest making it a torrent? Good Internet relics deserve to live duplicated in random computers all over the place, just like the Internet itself.

Now I’m curious. What happened to federated wiki?

I owe Ward stuff.

Fed wiki is still the current project. This was entirely about the hosting for the original wiki.
