I noted the "temporary demise" of WUARCHIVE (wuarchive.wustl.edu) due to
a system buy combined with flaky backup. Apparently they haven't managed
to restore all old files.

However, I don't understand how this should affect whether or not they
continue to mirror other archives. Their mirroring of INFO-MAC, for example,
is back on line.

I can't seem to find the mirror of the interactive fiction archive at
WUARCHIVE now that it is up and running. Am I missing something? It seems
a shame to have unnecessary net traffic to Germany to tie up FTP.GMD.DE
if a U.S. mirror site is available.

Does anyone know whether or not WUARCHIVE will be re-establishing
mirroring?
