On July 20, 2006, Braintalk.org seems to have gone offline and hasn’t been seen since. The message announcing its hardware/software failure hasn’t been updated.
Anybody have any word or update as to its status? With a large community of over 50,000 members, such a long downtime is virtually unheard of these days of cheap servers and storage space…
If anybody knows anything, we’re happy to lend a technical hand to get them back online and operational.
