Contact Dox regarding the original ErgoDox.org website

silverhook commented 7 years ago

@doxkb (Dominic “Dox” Beauchamp) is the initial author of ErgoDox and its original website. It would be great to get in contact with him to:

let him know about ErgoDox.org not being available and the new ErgoDox.io website
ask him as the (previous?) owner of ergodox.org to unlock the site’s archive at the Internet Archive
get content from him if he has a backup anywhere
get his blessing for the new website and comments on it

Neither of these are needed, as long as we comply with his original license, but it would be very good form from our side.

I've sent a couple emails that have gone unanswered as well. I'll leave the issue up for a bit, but based on the domain expiring and the unanswered emails, I don't expect a response.

I hoped that referring him in the issue might get his attention.

Closing, there's been no movement from the original designers. They (and anybody) is welcome to create pull requests, issues and request membership to the Ergodox-io organization on github.
