Website down

[Asherathe]

The website, including the plugins repository, seems to have vanished. Anyone know what's going on?

[pmourelle]

Website had been freezed since a while and used to be hosted on webfaction. Webfaction was bought by a shitty company last year and no longer support django (along with other zillion other stuff). Maybe could be hosted in some new place supporting django. Heroku maybe. Any other suggestion?

Heroku sounds good at the moment, but I have no idea what the migration process is like :/

https://www.pythonanywhere.com/ is pretty great. You can host a Django site on there very quickly and easily.

I'd be willing to help with this.

Is there a backup of the plugins repository (third-party, etc) available somewhere?

@pmourelle @centaurialpha I'm continuing the conversation here since I mentioned it at the wrong issue #2141 and the dup issue #2128 . Can anyone explain why the domain went up for auction? You could have transferred the domain to namecheap or anywhere else for $10/yr and connected it to any host you want. Now that it went up for auction it may be well over $1000 USD or more to get back. What is going on? Does someone you know own it or did a squatter outbid me this week? I tried to save your domain from squatters but I couldn't spend much more than $300. Did you get the money, or did Godaddy or a squatter get it? I want to know if we can even trust the Ninja project's website maintainer and who the website maintainer is or whether he/she ran off with that money.
