content: Sorry, but no, I won't support more war and more killings, and at this point nobody does, except maybe the very few out of their mind.

content: I can't seem to access any of it now, so I'm guessing (as squadchannel illuded to) the website and all of the linked resources (are down ?? and) redirect to the UKR page until the owner decides to put it back up again? Unless anyone knows how it can be bypassed?I don't like to talk politics, especially seeing as I rarely interact here (and don't want to stir up any trouble). However, I agree with RoGeorge. The war needs to end. It doesn't matter which side it is - its someone's son or daughter or father etc dying and continuing on with that at this stage is just wrong and unnecessary.This has given me a good excuse to start data-hoarding (I mean archiving) again... anyone got any good service manual repositories

content: I know, know.... It's not that I don't want to support them, or support Russia, not at all.When I try to access xdevs resources, it shows up and all the pages? are redirected, so I just wondered why you don't flag them so they don't show up again.I can certainly understand the xdevs owner's/Ukrainian feelings very well.I will wait until it comes back.

content: Interesting, when I try to hit the /docs backend I get a prompt for login, which when cancelled gives me a 401 error.I also tried to use the google index of the docs using site:xdevs.org/docs <search query> to search for direct links to the PDFs. But when I click on direct PDF links it just redirects me back to the temporary UKR page and not to the specific manuals.If you don’t mind me asking, how did you access it? I wonder is this temporary page served for everyone or based on IP location?

content: How are you getting in to the /docs area? I have an account, but still am only getting redirected to the Ukraine page. I'm thinking maybe they've changed it since you last said you could access it on 2/23/25?
