Amiga Demo Archive gone?

I visited ADA today (http://ada.untergrund.net/) and got greeted with this:

Quote:
It seems the website was hacked so i took it down. At this point, i'm tired of fighting against fake registrations, hacks and other crap so it's undecided if it will ever return.
Many thanks to everyone who visited and supported this site. I could never have imagined this kind of feedback, support and friendly atmosphere when i started the site many years ago.
Keep creating demos and supporting the demoscene!!! z5/A.D.A 2001-2009
According to Firefox the page was created yesterday.
It seems a shame if ADA won't return. It had a wealth of information (nicely presented) and the coding forums also contained interesting information (which is only partly mirrored on archive.org).

Yeah, saw it too. Very sad news. However, I have a feeling that z5 will bring back ADA. At least I really hope so.

omg!!! this is very bad news, especially since the forums over at ada used to have some nice coder's discussions and some of the old farts popped up over there once in a while to say hi
this is sad news indeed

Just wrote a mail to z5 asking him not to let ADA die. Let's see what he'll say.

@StingRay

If you have a contact with z5, please send me his e-mail on PM. I would like to give him the proposal for hosting this site. I just need to contact him and speak about some details.
