'Official Luthiers Forum' defunct September 1?

[phavriluk]

Anybody known anything about this forum's going dark? During the last week of August there was a great deal of discussion about supporting the forum in order to keep it going, and quite a related conversation about the seemingly-excessive cost of forum hosting, and Monday, it's gone.

If any of the forum's major information contributors have decamped to elsewhere, I'd love to know where.

Thanks!

Last I heard from Hesh it was closing up sadly a lot of good info lost

Thanks, John. Did Hesh mention whether he was going to continue offering his advice in another venue? The last I'd seen was a discussion about web hosting and it was going badly. Then the dark.

I might be wrong here but I think Lance K owned the sight. Hesh was a major content contributor

I'd be overjoyed if Hesh joined us and perhaps other former OLF participants would follow.

I think you've got it right on both counts.
