tBoJ, especially, is this the same repository you keep talking about? because it would appear to me as though you're trying to start an alternate repository, and it's somewhat frustrating to see that two different MLAers, have started two different "repository" type websites at one time.

If you would like to join the MIR, or merge the two repositories, I'm certain that I'd enjoy somethingl ike that, and would like to talk to (tBoJ at least)

When I have my server (Intrikit Weaver) set up, I'm going to be hosting MacInfoRepository, I'm not sure if cats' MIR is currently "up" anywhere, I'll ask him tonight.

The Repository database I am working on is slightly different, since it only covers Motorola products and is geared as a commercially supportable database, ie; a company can use this free resource to aid them in planning for any legacy applications that are still running on older macs. (Suprisingly many still run legacy apps on older macs)

I'm sure at one point or another, some information may seem to colide, but being how open the net is I hope this won't be an issue. I'm currently sending out tonnes of e-mails to various webmasters to get permission for thier data to be included.

So, you can cats can feel free to keep going, mine has a different purpose behind it, being commercially driven. From what I have seen/heard yours seems like a community one. My database has a section on support available for older machines Apple dropped support for, ie; "Extended Life Support".

Anyways, I think we parties just had the same brilliant idea, and certianly, we can swap data and links at a later time when allowed. (Like if I have permission from an author to include his data, you would need to ask him before you include it in your etc., simply stuff like that.)

I don't recall saying that MIR was ever mine, or part mine, but knowing me, I probably did.

I only started this topic, seeking some answers from tBoJ, who wasn't on AIM at that time, about his repository in comparison with the other one, whos ever it is.

I still have, and will one day actually work on the files for those specs, but if it's being transferred, I'm not sure if those'll work... *DUNNO* though...

I'll gladly help whoever has it, and I'll gladly host it if the IW ever gets going.

I thought, because you did say it several times, that you were going to "give" MIR to me, dunno though, I'm not sure why I'm not a great cantidate any more, I would love an explaination of that over AIM one day, but I'm not so sure as I'm going remember that for too long.

There's so much going on lately, including several projects from long ago, that I've been trying to finish, Intrikit Weaver, MLAgazine and others.

If anything, i said "Catsdorule started (with me) a project..." because I was basically going to be your host, a chief source of info, a moderator (admin even, on the forum).

In addition, I remember alot of discussion with you at that time, had dealings with the info repository.
