http://blinkprotocol.org/ down?

Hi,

I can't seem to be able to connect to blinkprotocol.org anymore, although the specs are still available via archive.org, luckily. Is there anything that can be done to help hosting? Please let me know.

blinkprotocol.org is still down, unfortunately. Does anyone have the following beta4 specification documents archived?

BlinkSpec-beta4.pdf

BlinkNativeSpec-beta4.pdf

BlinkSchemaExchangeSpec-beta4.pdf

BlinkTagSpec-beta4.pdf

BlinkXmlSpec-beta4.pdf

BlinkJsonSpec-beta4.pdf

Additionally, I am interested in the type library (BlinkStdLib-beta1.pdf) and the alpha XMIT specification documents:

XmitSpec-alpha15.pdf

XmitDesignNotes-alpha9.pdf

FixBlinkSpec-beta1.pdf

I am looking to implement some of this stuff in Rust as a learning exercise, and Blink/XMIT is soo much more tractable than something like ASN.1. Any assistance in locating these documents would be appreciated!

You should be able to download the specs from

newp.  I just got a bunch of HTML, and no PDF content :-(

Anyone still have them?

The following worked for me: go to https://web.archive.org/web/20160312002034/http://blinkprotocol.org/s/specs.html

Right client on a spec, (blink specification, for example). Download it using curl:

$ curl -sO 'https://web.archive.org/web/20160312002034/http://blinkprotocol.org/s/BlinkSpec-beta4.pdf' 

$ file BlinkSpec-beta4.pdf

$ cat BlinkSpec-beta4.pdf

found capture at 20160610025245

# Replace the date in the first url:

$ curl -sO 'https://web.archive.org/web/20160610025245/http://blinkprotocol.org/s/BlinkSpec-beta4.pdf' 

$ file BlinkSpec-beta4.pdf 

BlinkSpec-beta4.pdf: PDF document, version 1.4
