Chris,

Thank you for doing all of the work to get the system back up and 
running again.    I'm sure it's an undertaking on a scale that most of 
us can't fully appreciate.

I know that you are busy getting everything re-installed, etc.   But I 
was wondering if there will be any upgrades/changes to the way the 
newsgroups work.   I know that a lot of us would like to be able to 
include attachments in ANY of the newsgroups.

Perhaps having some more decentralization would be good, if at all 
possible.  I know that Mike Williams' site has been down for a while. 
I backed that up and created a PDF and a zip file of all of his sources. 
  I have all of Friedrich Lohmueller's excellent work as well.
Perhaps we could have some dedicated space on the new server for that 
material, and maybe mull over a mechanism by which the core POV-Ray 
material (source, binaries, documentation) could have backups hosted on 
one or more other sites.

Again, thank you for doing what I'm sure is a LOT of highly focused, 
specialized technical work.  Everything associated with the new server 
is not free - Perhaps there is something some of us could do by check, 
paypal, patreon, ....?
