yeah, it’s a bit embarassing (for our community) that mportant sections of the main site are down so often. every other time i go to manual. or api. it’s down.

Or the wiki...or the trac...or... :wink:

Perhaps the community should step in and help. I’d be more than willing to provide a mirror.

Agreed; if I had the resources/time to help I would. I would be willing to chip in to help fund a mirror, though.

A colleague has been working on http://www.railsapi.org/ as a pet-project in his spare time.

That may be of interest to some of you.

i have a dedicated box with spare bandwidth - i’d host a mirror.

How is this different than http://www.railsmanual.org/ ? I don't mean to criticize, I'm just asking because I'd use it more often if there were a reason to switch. :slight_smile:

The API really isnt the problem; there are a lot of mirrors of that. It's just the other "stuff" that needs it.
