Yes, I can't load the page, too. BTW, wouldn't it be better to add
Frank Seidel as recipient because he was the manager of the wiki?

I added him as this mail's recipient.

Thank.

I did send an email query about the wiki status -- with a "thank you!"
for the work involved -- a couple of days ago.   Didn't bounce, but
there's not been a response.

That wiki was very helpful as I tried to get going with linux-next stuff.

Sorry for my late response. Due to financial reasons i had to quit
the contract for the server hosting that site.
Just moved the domain now to another hoster, but didn't find time until
now to setup things there again.
But i definitly will be doing so (hopefully within the next one or two
weeks).

Thanks,
Frank

Looks like the page is not recovered yet. If it needs far more times until
recover, how about adding some note for the temporal site down or just removing
the link until the page be recovered?
Btw, I don't want to make pressure. If I am, so sorry. I Just want your
opinion.

Thanks,

This has been sitting in my inbox for a while now.  Now that I have a
docs tree going again, I've applied it - sorry for the delay!
