Hmmm.  Scrape Google?  I see that their cache of wiki.alu.org has
already updated to show alu.org, but some of the other pages are still
cached.  A query of "site:wiki.alu.org" returns 344 pages (347 if you
select the "omitted results".  I'll take a stab at it, but the history
and metadata cannot be retrieved this way...

archive.org is less helpful:

We're sorry, access to http://wiki.alu.org has been blocked by the
site owner via robots.txt.
