A quick pointer to http://whymirror.github.com/ -- we're trying to recover _why's old projects and find custodians for them.
I've posted a progress report on the comp.lang.ruby list (http:// groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.ruby/browse_thread/thread/ 1190325eb665b63f#) so I won't go into depth, but if you have documentation, content or SVN pulls from _why's public projects please contact that project's maintainer (and *not* whymirror -- see http://whymirror.github.com).
The most urgent needs are
* Code for why's "Try Ruby" widget. * Maintainers for shoes and hpricot. (Or if a maintainer already exists, their name and URL)
