[schmarty] hmm. wondering if anyone has thoughts on whether and how we should archive the projects at https://glitch.com/@indieweb before glitch project hosting goes away in about a month.

#
[schmarty] looks like mostly [grantcodes] and [jgmac1106] projects, templates for folks to remix into their own sites.
#
osteophage Not sure [schmarty], but recently Loren wrote about it here: https://ribo.zone/glitch/

#
[schmarty] ah, i see they're collecting links to http://archive.org backups of the public-facing side of sites they want to keep a handle on.
#
[schmarty] that would work to preserve static sites, as long as all their content is publicly reachable. some of these have a server-side component, so might be better preserved by downloading and re-hosting.
#
[schmarty] these projects were also put on glitch by members of the indieweb community who have since drifted away, so it's not clear the extent to which they would even want them archived.
#
[tantek] Presumably if they were openly licensed for forking & remixing there's an implicit (or even explicit) expectation that it's fine that others fork and rehost
#
[tantek] If they seem useful might be worth putting the server side code bits into gists or a repo?
#
[schmarty] repos definitely possible. gists an interesting idea. first step is probably to review these ~dozen projects to see if anything is in active use to prioritize that. for the rest, decide at what level each needs to be archived and/or made available.
