Re: End of the Patry Copyright Blog

Despite its (semi-)availability on the wayback machine, I'm a bit shocked that he deleted his archives! It's one thing to stop blogging, but another to delete your entire history of doing so. In the field of law and technology scholarship we often rely on sources like these (i.e. we dealt with a lot of citations to blog posts on the Journal of Law and Technology), and the potential for them to disappear like that is rather haunting...

There is a delay of several months between the time that archive.org
crawls a site and the time that it appears in the Wayback machine.  So
it is likely that most of Patry's posts will eventually be available
this way.
