To: xxxxxx@simplelists.com Date: Thursday, April 7, 2016, 6:30 AM Hey folks, Don McKinney's son here. We still have all of dad's content and information for Traveller. There hasn't been an intentional purge. However, I am betting when my mother renewed the Go-Daddy account for Winter War, she did not keep authorization for the subdomain. I have inquired with her to know if she knows something. If it is just down because of access, I'll see if we can at least get a static version of it up. But it's important to remember that without dad being here, that page is UNLIKELY to update ever again. While I retain all of my father's Traveller books, works, and documents, the information on that page was shared with the circle around Marc Miller so that way he knew about it. In any case, if the page can be brought up, I will see if we can. But it may just have been an oversight issue because I didn't even know about the page myself until 2 months ago. It was one of the many things I learned as his son, in my father's passing, as I went through and organized stuff. I'll keep you updated if I find anything out.

I suspect either the gaming group or Don's son has requested the pages be taken down as the DNS entries no longer exist. Brett.

The answer is no I have not tried since I just stumbled on to the problem. I know that about three weeks ago I could still access the site. I also have copies I downloaded and saved to my hard drive. I did check archive.org about the Merchant Prince Trader program mentioned here recently.

Have you tried the WayBack Machine at the Internet Archive? <https://archive.org/web/> I found captures of his site there back in 2012 that resulted in those PDF’s.
