I don't think there's much use in standing it back up as it was. |
13:01 |
mod6 |
fair enough, no time like the present to re-think it |

whatever suceeds the centralized wot oughtn't have the pitfall of guy's machine disappearing nuking the thing. |
13:02 |
mod6 |
hard to argue with that, even so, what to do |
13:03 |

was anyone in practice using the old wot for anything? |

thing to do is keep building pest. I'm still hacking on occ when I have time. |
13:03 |
mod6 |
i mean, i still know how to use it, but haven't had to use it for a while. i also like that it exists. |
13:05 |
mod6 |
nice. if pest can grow into something that handles it, that'd be cool. |
13:06 |

been discussed for a long time. |

but yea, the old #t wot has been afaik effectively read-only for yrs |
13:11 |
asciilifeform |
there was the get-in-the-wot-and-gate-to-pest thing signpost made last yr tho |
13:11 |
mod6 |
yeah, i saw some people make some updates in the last 2 years or so, but not super often. |
13:11 |

iirc 1 n00b used it briefly |
13:13 |

the deedbot www was also the go-to place to fetch pubkeys quickly. |

asciilifeform will need to mirror the ones he linked to. prolly good practice regardless of whether signpost digs up the backup |
13:14 |
signpost |
yeah, I apologize for this. not going to be able to immediately divert attention to standing it back up atm. |
13:16 |

archive.org seems to have working snapshot incl. pubkeys (tho nfi whether for all) |
13:17 |
mod6 |

13:20 |

agreed |
13:21 |
asciilifeform |
esp. given as the #t museum can still be viewed at above link |
13:22 |
asciilifeform |
afaik the only folx who are alive, still on the net, and still using the names/pubkeys displayed in that wot, are all tuned in here. |
