Scary. I should mirror techpubs when it comes back up. Hopefully they're not cleaning house.

Ack! Just my luck!

I buy myself an Octane2, I try and get into techpubs to get a copy of the Octane User Manual.... and it's down :(

Anyone got a copy mirrored anywhere? :D

The end of world as we use to know it. :?
Well, the time is for local copy, anyone knows what may be size of complete Techpubs (IRIX 6.5 and HW at least), tared preferably. Seems that Developer Toolbox is gone as well.

The manuals are installed with IRIX, or can be installed (it is a default install)...

Okay everybody, you can breathe a sigh of relief.

It seems that http://techpubs.sgi.com is back online as of ~ 9 AM California time.

Maybe they laid off one too many sys admins? :wink:
