HKMDB and AsianDVDGuide site watch

I figured we should have a thread reporting the status of these 2 sites that are very important to us and have both faced hard times and have been in danger of closing forever. If you happen to notice their status changing, please report... especially if you know why.

Current Status:

HKMDB been down for a few days... anybody know why this time?

AsianDVDGuide is up.

I know...

Just found this on the asiandvdguide forum -

Here's what Joseph has to say about the problems:

"HKMDB servers started another round of upgrade and modification. It started from 1 Aug 2001 up to late October. A new system for dynamic IP address will be adapted for security reasons. During the process, IP numbers will be changed irregularily.

As the IP address will be changed regularily, it is meaningless to post the IP address as it can be lasted only for a very short time.

So it could be up and down like this until late October perhaps (as someone speculated)... Perhaps someone has more light to shed on the subject.

don't see why this should be a problem, I wonder if they ever heard of a redirector.

Yeah - I agree... I don't know what's going on there. It makes no sense. Perhaps someone here could mirror the content. Anyone know how much space they need?
