geek gadgets / ade?

hippie2000 · 29 October 2007, 16:53

hello,

1) anyone knows the status of the geek gadgets project?
i have mirrored ftp.ninemoons.com daily, before the
disks on BTTR server were filled up.

my latest copy is from august 2004
ftp://ftp.back2roots.org/pub/geekgadgets/

is this continued somewhere?

if not, anyone having a more recent copy?

2) anyone here owning any of the subscription snapshot
cds willing to upload it to BTTR, to be (legally) offered to the
public?

thanks, ralf

I think Ninmoons.com was run by Fred Fish who died not to long ago. I don't know about anything newer than what BTTR has.

yes, samurai, it was fred's domain. also he initiated GG.
fred gave me/bttr the permission to release all his productions
about two years before his death.

now i try to get hold of the stuff, for fish cds thats pretty easy,
as many people bought them.

but the geek gadget snapshot cds were a kind of subscription cds
used to finance the project i recall from times when the site still
was online, they were not in "average joe's" collection...

Does anyone have a CD (or image) of of Geek Gadgets Volume 2 ?

girv · 21 December 2007, 00:42

Might I have it then ?

Pyromania · 21 December 2007, 00:54

If I can find it sure.

Never mind, it seems BTTR has it for download anyway! I just missed the link duh!

The packages on this CD are very out dated... but hey...

I also have the updates from 9905

Its primarily gcc that I'm interested in and I've been told that gcc > 2.95ish is buggy on m68k amigaos (or buggy for m68k targets?), so I don't know if I should bother looking for a later one or not. Any suggestions?
