<p class="MsoNormal">I notice that the COD homepage has not been
available for a few days. Are you experiencing a lot of problems
with the “bots” at the moments? Or are there other issues. Do
you have an estimate when the server will be back.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Yes, you are right, we suffered a very serious overload from
external bots and lost our main disk with the server and the main
repository. I'm an now restoring from backups, and the plan is to
restart our "warm standby" ASAP, hopefully in a couple of days.</p>
<p>On that occasion, since you have diligently collected COD cifs in
real time – can you share you recent downloads with us?
Admittedly, our repository backups are on month old, and a working
copy in Granada mirror, thanks to Miguel, has a backup of 1 day
old working copy, but it would be great to cross-check all sources
including your's so that we do not miss any entries.</p>
<p>Can we access you COD CIF collection over rsync or http(s) (REST)
protocols?</p>
<p>Regards,<br>
Saulius<br>
