I'd like to answer this on two fronts. |

As infra, I did offer hosting to Mike Valstar shortly after their |
| 11 |
downtime started. However he turned me down as somebody else offered him |
| 12 |
much beefier hardware (overkill hardware in my personal opinion). An |
| 13 |
additional minor concern were the Google ads he runs, which might not be |
| 14 |
possible at some of our sponsors. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
My offer for remote backups for him still stands, and I have not |
| 17 |
received any response on it from Mike. |

Additionally, there are license concerns about their existing content, |
| 20 |
as it was originally one license, and was then blanket re-licensed (see |
| 21 |
the mails on the gentoo-doc list for more details). Any new Gentoo-run |
| 22 |
wiki could enforce our docs license of CC-Attribution/ShareALike from |
| 23 |
the start. |
