As near as I can tell, the core contributors, whom are all internal
folks by definition, still have internal mechanisms to get at materials

_completely_ cut off from effectively contributing[1]. As an external
contributor who has no membership nor voting status in any quorum
community, I can only call upon your good nature to restore as much of
the site as is possible without jeopardizing the rest of the portal.
Please consider my +.1.
I'd give a +1. We have no expectation that the site will have the old
caselog on it in the future (and I don't believe that's part of what's
planned either in the short or long term), so flushing "caselog/" and
providing access to the remaining community pages seems the only
available fix at the moment.
The mechanism I put up this morning gives us some open access to the
'active' cases (those either scheduled for regular review or waiting
fast-tracks). The other cases that were under 'caselog/' are
obviously useful for background and reference (and access to at least
expurgated versions of those cases has long been a hotly contested
issue; enough so that there's been work put into tracking the gradual
opening of old cases), but in terms of time-to-fix, I think access to
those older ones could safely wait one or a few weeks, where the ones
currently in flight just can't wait at all.
I might add that any case materials that have been posted to arc-discuss
since July 13, 2005 are conveniently search-able and available here:
http://opensolaris.markmail.org/search/list:org%2Eopensolaris%2Eopensolaris-arc
It may not be the same as having direct access to the materials, but it
will give you quite a bit.
