the pitches and proposals for Agaric Grassroots— er, Mycelial
For: Mass Global Action Black Immigrant Collective community housing
Pitches
We take care of your web site for a fixed rate and continually improve it. It’s more expensive than a lot of proprietary services—which start at free—but it gives you more power and freedom.
Proposals
Agaric will migrate four active websites to Drutopia. Legacy websites which are no longer used will be converted to static sites (viewable, but non-interactive and without easy editing capabilities) and hosted for free, forever.
Using ipneighbour.com and dnsqueries.com Agaric identified sites at IP address 72.34.63.151, Virtual Private Server (VPS). The present server is slow, with frequent delays in serving basic content for several seconds, and sometimes timing out entirely. Here are some notes on specific sites. In each category they are listed in alphabetical order.
Sites to migrate to the Drutopia cooperative platform
Sites to be converted to static sites
Already static sites
Already moved off the server
- chomskyspeaks.org is a Weebly site.
- colorofwater.org redirects to colorofwater.net, a Weebly site.
Offline
In addition, several domains without currently working sites were reported:
- anemones.org is not technically offline, but appears never to have had content.
- adj-l.org and adj-l.net both give an internal server error. On Internet Archive there is nothing but the title “adj-l Adjuncts E-mail List” and a lot of default pages from PGM Realtime Builder (now Soholaunch).
- bostondayofaction.org shows only database errors.
- bostonhumanrights.org is a white screen of death (WSOD) now, showed some errors and nothing else back in 2017, but has some content back from 2008 that was still online in 2011.
- bostonunac.org the domain has expired; content from 2013 last known working in 2015.
- digitalmediaconference.org with a 403 Forbidden error.
- march24.org is on another server with unrelated spam/ads.
- mayouno.org, mayouno.com, and primerodemayo.net were online as recently as 2016 but have virtually no content and reference a 2005 event.
- naffe.net isn’t technically offline, but all it does is link to FairJobs.org.
- stopthewars.org was online as recently as 2018 (with latest content from the end of 2013).
- thefallujahproject.org has a domain lost to the Sedo domain parking cabal.
Several of these may have files or databases present on the VPS. Where desired, we can attempt to restore them from there, from backups which may be available, or from Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine, and convert to static sites or migrate to the Drutopia cooperative platform.
Among other reported legacy sites:
We are offering to do the migrations pro bono.
The cost is $500/year per active site.
For all active sites, features will continually be added, security improved, and the experience of using the site made more joyful.
we will check in regularly to learn about your needs
features which are compatible with the needs of others in the Drutopia cooperative can be commissioned and paid for separately.
