This weekend I am posting most of the lost posts back to August 27 – comments are lost though but the data in the posts can at least be saved. Thanks to the help from everyone – John Handelaar, Dan Sullivan, Ian and Robert
Our shared server at blacknight was breached today with the loss of data back to August 27th. I am working to find a recent update to try and bring us a little closer to today but either way much of our recent stuff is lost. MY apologies to both our readers and the bloggers who went to all the effort of writing those posts. Normal service will hopefully resume from them as I endeavour to get more stuff back.
Edit Many thanks to Ian and Dan for their help and big thanks to John Handelaar for sending on a cache of our recent posts. I will be posting older posts over the next three days or so. Most recent first to cause minimal disturbance to readers. Thanks again for your patience.
I have recent posts still on my feedreader up until 6th November if that helps?
Sure would help – I can repost them under the authors’ names. How are they stored?
I might have some too, trying to mail to myself from the google reader. Probably lost the comments though.
Thanks a million Dan
i have some (but not all) posts from our email services so I will be reposting them in due course too. Any posters who have stuff in their feed readers etc. will be most helpful. You can email me directly if u like on cianflah [at] gmail [dot] com
thanks
Check your mail. Have just sent a backup in Atom format dumped out of Google Reader.
Cian,
I’m sorry to hear of your troubles with the site yesterday. It must have been oh so frustrating! I should have some of my own articles from August – end October on my PC as I generally create a file for the research data and then draft the blog in it. Over the weekend I can have a look and see if I can dig out any that I have not deleted and send them on to you if that would be helpful?
All authors should have email copies of comments left on their blogs along with details of who left them. Now they could have been deleted but if not authors could reapply comments. I can kick this off on my own posts later.
