Almlys is pulling the plug on the Uru resources he is still hosting, by converting them into static archives that are only interesting for historical purposes. This is quite understandable, seeing he almost entirely left Uru before I even knew about it (so, before February 2007), and since his forum was hardly used and the wiki contained mostly obsolete information. If you still have any bookmarks around pointing to something at http://alcugs.almlys.org/ or http://forum.almlys.org/, you should remove them and check where up-do-date information on that topic can be found.
Two (groups of) pages are noteworthy:
* The TPOTS sequence prefix management: For a long time, this management was duplicated in the Alcugs wiki and on Trylon's ULM server. Trylon recently pulled the plug of that database, and the wiki page was moved over to the GoW (which should make it quite easy for every age writer to get his age added, plus there are a *lot* of people around who could do that for someone). There might be other copies of the Alcugs list floating on the interwebs, but they will probably already be outdated, and multiple lists ensure chaos. So, POTS age writers, please use the list at http://www.guildofwriters.org/wiki/TPOT ... e_Prefixes and *only* that list, to register a sequence prefix before you send your age to *anybody* (and this is to be taken literally, it includes testing versions).
* The Alcugs server: As the name suggests, the Alcugs site originally was mostly about the Alcugs server. For more than three years now, I am its only maintainer, and it is currently in "bug-fixing only" mode - but it is still a reliable foundation for a Shard, though future Shards should be based on CWE. In an case, you can find the current version of the source code, including all the documentation to set it up, at https://gitorious.org/alcugs/. The wiki pages over at Alcugs are, again, outdated, so please do not use them for anything. If you got any problems with the server, feel free to post here at the GoW ("General Discussion" should be the best-suited section, but please feel free to correct me on that )
If you feel any information you used to get from the Alcugs site is missing now, and/or not available anywhere else, just tell us. We will ensure that, if it is important, it does not get lost
