Not really a news in it-self as this was first announced a few months ago.
A recent reminder on FreeDOS raised the question about potentially archiving in some form the DOS related pages. At the very least, it was suggested to download ones favorite programs/utilities normally found there to a safe location in the event the original owner of a page has forgotten about it and does not migrate it to another server/services before doomsday.
Once in a while my DOS web-searches gets me to pages hosted on Geocities and most of these encounters resulted in a download of the program/utility found.
I'm not familier with many of the vintage computers. There may be a need to archive some of the most pertinent pages if it appears that the original owner may have forgotten of it (no update made in years?).
