Description

The core of the problem is that we had a days long outage of imager-server and other library.kiwix.org related services.

  • With the current setup the risk that an master storage outage happens again is relatively high because a technical or a contractual problem
  • The point is that we suspect that the demo is pretty much DMCA prone
