Might we convince you to make a single tarball available, to bypass any administrative hastle with access and such.

Seems it ain't quite over yet.
The reason why Musica Viva is down now has nothing whatsoever to do with the real issue. Apparently the domain name has been blocked due to "communication problems" between VeriSign and their Norwegian agent, ActiveISP. That's what happened last year at least, and I know I paid that bill two months ago (I just checked just to be absolutely sure). At first I saw no reason to bother, but on second thought I realized this is a golden opportunity to vent off some of my built-up frustration. Some poor bloke down at ActiveISP is gonna get a hell of a start of the day tomorrow. ;-)
Maybe I should sue them, btw? Does anybody know anything about the legal aspect of such a situation?
Anyway, the site will be back again soon, It probably won't be for long, but at least it'll get a proper funeral. Musica Viva ain't gonna just softly and suddenly vanish away!

Once at a crisis point in my life I got an email from an Indian friend who
said "always remember that some of Gods greatest gifts come in the form of
unanswered prayers".
I've got a feeling that when I get some distance to the whole thing, getting rid of that greedy and ungrateful monster called Musica Viva will have been one of the best things ever to happen to me. Somehow that doesn't feel very comforting...

Well...
The Free Sheet Music Directory is one of the main reasons why Musica Viva is bleeding to death, and even if some last-minute miracle should save the site, that particular part of it will have to go.

Hmmm...
The ABC applications search engine really ought to stay online. Any volunteers?
