Further to my last message, I've manage to restore most of the files.  Here are 
the buts (there is both good and bad news)...

0. All AGRIP-made releases are back.

1. The shareware release, however, is no longer available in the place I got it 
from and I am not sure what the steps are to prepare it (basically it was a 
special version of the shareware data that our installer was written to work 
with, but it was provided by QuakeForge who no longer seems to have it on their 
site.  Does anyone have a copy of quake-shareware-1.06.zip (or a file of the 
same name ending in .tar.gz)?

2. The installers are, alas, hard-coded to look for Mindgird audio and the 
shareware file at a particular address, which is now the wrong one.  First 
thing that needs fixing in the next release (which the community will have to 
build as I no longer can) will have to be putting in a file that points to the 
current download location -- or perhaps fetching it from agrip.org.uk.

3. Some good news: I found a newer Mac build that is universal and put it on 
the downloads page.

4. For those that may want to build a Windows installer I have got the SAPI 
"merge modules" that I prepared ages ago.  SAPI's now bundled with Windows, 
though so these may no longer be needed.  If they are, you know where to come 
now :-).

So, in summary, if anyone can help me with the shareware version that would be 
appreciated, but the rest is all there.  I have also started preparing a new 
home page that simply links to Launchpad and a potential community-run AQ home 
page.  I suggest that we nominate someone to maintain a home page that links to 
all the other stuff.  I thought we could call it the AudioQuake and Level 
Description Language home page or something like that.  I would like to keep 
the AGRIP domain for the moment, because all of my email and other sites are 
attached to it.  That was possibly an oversight, so apologies, but I won't be 
able to sort it all out for a few months due to work :-S.  In the meantime I'm 
happy to make our home page link to one of yours.  I might be able to provide 
hosting space if need be but would be slow on tech-support again due to work, 
so if you can find an alternative it might be for the best.

best regards,
