The Addventure should NOT be restarted. Hopefully no one in charge will seriously consider this. Someone mentioned five years of history, well let me reiterate. FIVE YEARS of history. Web browsers have been around for, what, seven years? Eight? (not counting Lynx/text).
This amount of time (5 years) represents basically the entire duration of the WWW as we know it. In 1997, few were using the internet with the exception of computer enthusiasts. Yahoo was a search engine. So was Infoseek. There was no Google. There was no BEarchive.
Simply trashing that much accumulated work, and effort...or for that matter, rendering it inactive by shuffling it off to some forgotten directory, to be peered at as a curiosity from time to time - that would be unforgiveable.
Hopefully, the Addventure will continue for another 5 years. If people are tired of it, perhaps a new one could be started (although I'm against this and wouldn't participate in such a thing) but the original must continue.
As someone said, a new Addventure would not energize anyone or revitalize anything. I for one would slink off this site forever, never to be seen again, should the Addventure be restarted or scrapped. (I can hear the chorus of "who cares", but even so...)
I find that whenever people work hard on something, there is always a minority who want to tear it down and destroy it. Let's make sure those people don't get their way.
