I think we need to differentiate. PUMP was never created as a replacement for the PowerBASIC forum, and it will never be such. If you look carefully at the acronym you will find the words "meeting point". Or, in British english, a "muster point". A place where people report to in an emergency.

And as this PUMP is working fine right now, as I can tell. And will as well in the future, least as long I am living (right now I am 73).
Here we are talking about future plans for a proper replacement of PowerBASIC forum. In an ideal world we would be able to start with the wealth of knowledge already existing in the "forum without public DNS". And also in Gary's database, of course.
The plan is setting up and manage the "PB-Forum II". I believe here are many people with immense knowledge and skills for doing so. Certainly I am willing to volunteer, and being a small part of this endeavour.
Cheers,
Albert
