If at all possible, I think the RDS archives should be backed up on the openeuphoria.org site. Many of the RDS file listings are dead links to defunct web pages. I suppose this could be done automatically. Can OpenEuphoria.Org afford to accomodate the RDS archives?

Those dead links do nothing positive for Euphoria's image, and they also indicate that Rob and Junko don't have the time (or perhaps the interest) to clean them out.
Before we ask permission to back them up here, perhaps we should find someone here who has the time and the interest?
I waited to see if anyone else would reply first, but...
I would be interested, and quite possibly prepared to host a few (thousand) files, but would need some help.
I know there is http://rapideuphoria.com/unzip.txt, but afaik that only covers rds-hosted zips, and has no descriptions, etc. Is there anything better? Is this a web scraping thing (of which I have very limited experience)? Is there by any chance a wget-generating script, ideally one that can produce a report of dead links?
