| One Hundred Thousand Unique Visitors |
3 October 2005 |
|
September 2005 was the first month we had more than 100,000 (one hundred
thousand) unique visitors on the curl web site.
curl packages were downloaded more than 20,000 times from the curl.haxx.se site
only during the month.
Over the last year, we have gained approximately 50% more visitors on the web
site.
Thanks to all you who make this possible: people writing stuff that show up on
the site, people who help me admin the site, people hosting site mirrors,
companies buying ads and people referring to our site from all over.

| Mailing Lists Data Loss |
22 September 2005 |
|
Added a separate page to explain the recent mailing list data loss we experienced.
|
| Mailing Lists Restoration Work |
19 September 2005 |
|
We didn't have a backup of the subscribers list of the mailing lists. Efforts have been made and some addresses
have been restored and brought back, but many have been lost. If you want to
subscribe to the lists, you should verify that you are still subscribed!
Sorry for this inconveniance.
|
| Mailing Lists Wiped Out |
17 September 2005 |
|
A "friendly" person deleted huge parts of cool.haxx.se today, which among
other things hosts and runs our mailing lists. Currently all subscribers and
all list info etc are gone.
We should be able to restore some of it from backups. Stay tuned.
Please allow a few days before all things are back to normal.
It was done by using a security hole in twiki - used for another project
on the same server. Aren't the world full of friendly souls? The IP
originated from a country/region that makes it no point in persuing this
legal wise.
