Hi, all.

Thanks for the heads up and kind words.

Been a long time since maintaining shrimping.it was a priority and it must have fully fallen off the bottom of the list this year. in DNS terms..

Please note all resources are still Creative Commons at https://github.com/shrimpingit this includes...
* Project resources (including step by step SVGs) at https://github.com/ShrimpingIt/projects
* Website copy (exactly what was on the website) at e.g. https://github.com/ShrimpingIt/website_text/blob/master/src/content/index.md

Also there's always the wayback machine resources at https://web.archive.org/web/20250805171203/http://start.shrimping.it/

Had a chance to pursue the ESP ecosystem for a while also at https://vgkits.org/blog/ but in the end I've ended up stepping away from arts and open source in favour of more lucrative enterprise software.

Have fun everyone!

It was a great project from Cefn, and I still use it to introduce young
people to Electronics.

If someone wants to capture the information in a blog post, we should be
able to host it on the BCS OSSG website.  Which should give it longevity.

Best wishes,


Jeremy
