After years of failed attempts to resolve these issues, the project staff decided to move to a new domain to ensure data preservation and site reliability.

· 3 pulledBasic features such as HTTPS have been missing and the project staff have been unable to address this due to the site being tightly controlled by an inactive administrator.
Staff have made multiple attempts over several years to contact the redump.org admin to ask for these issues to be addressed, but all of these attempts have been unsuccessful.
This has become increasingly untenable over the course of the past year, with major site outages and issues causing real concern that data could be permanently lost.
