Since the code hasn't been made public, it's not really meaningfully more 'rescued' than it was before. One hard drive crash, guy getting bored and shutting the server down because of no hits in X days, or similar and it's back to being lost media again. It's not clear to me from the video that any effort has been (or will be) made to secure the rights to release this obsolete zombie product to the adoring public. The Archie dev seems to have given them the blessing to set the server up based on the sources received from the Polish university, but no mention of anything further. If you wanna save Archie, let it go free so hobbyists can run more servers! After all, it's not like there's any money left to be made on an FTP search engine in 2024.
