Ask HN: Where's NM?
New Mogul has been down for the past few days. I know prakash and nickb and a handful of others are frequent fliers between these two sites. Does anybody know what's going on?
News.arc, particularly the older version that Newmogul is running, is known to crash periodically. So the most likely explanation is that Nickb is off the grid and no one has the password to restart the server.
I certainly hope that Nickb is ok, but right now I'm not concerned. I just wish he would have given someone server access.
I second that. The community at NM was starting to become self-sustaining, it sucks that the server is down and no one can do anything about it.
I host an IRC channel for some friends, they all have my cell, just in case.
Not being a nm user it doesn't really concern me, but I really think if you have had this in the past and you haven't done anything about it that you should make some move to avoid future repetition.
