Does anyone know exactly why Pieter took his website down? Bob Webb wants to know.

It's offline. It's been partially backed up and you can still browse most of the contents from there.

Well, it's back online. Sort of.
No idea who's behind it, but it doesn't look like P.

Someone's obviously got hold of the domain name since it's been out of use for a few months.
It's certainly not Pieter's doing, just copied from Wikipedia.

MikeWaits has started the Tom Waits Encyclopedia, which aims to pick up where Pieter left off: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=7296

I thought I read that a few pages back? Some broken links or something like that? If it's complete and working fine, then yay!

1 thing is missing for sure : Pieter. I'll miss his dedication and work, all the respect for him.
Mikewaits : good luck, and especially lot of fun with the encyclopedia. I'll be looking forward to searching your site when I need info.

Pieter even let go the domain? About that N. Cali couple, if they're so unhappy now why didn't they actively support the Library in the first place? Aside from theofficial cd's that was Tom's legacy right there. It was the record of record :megaphone:

Is it possible to change the search function so that it searches the acutal tomwaitslibrary, and not tomwaitslibrary.com?
