ftp.gweep.ca is MIA
ftp.gweep.ca is MIA
#1
I just discovered this looking at one of the fanfic recs pages on ATT, where a bot has recently been checking all the outbound links and flagging broken ones.

For those who don't know, ftp.gweep.ca was the home of perhaps the single largest fanfiction archive on the Net outside of the Pit of Voles.  It had stuff dating back to the dawn of Net fanfic, in the early- to mid-1990s.  Does anyone know what happened to it, and when?

Someone should check with Gryphon and Zoner. If anyone knows, it should be those two.

We can leave the pain and the damage in our wake, unattended, or we can do the work of acknowledging and fixing, to whatever extent possible, the harm that we have caused.”
