Where is the ARAS spectroscopy forum now?

[John Coffin]

Hi, I’m trying to access the ARAS forum after a long summer break from astronomy. The website seems to be broken. Does anyone know if the forum has been closed? I am trying to find which targets ARAS and BAA would like observing. Thanks.

Unfortunately hackers trashed the forum some months ago. They have been working to restore it from backups but has been slow going. (I think the messages are intact but I believe it is restoring the links to the embedded images which is giving problems.) I hope it does come back eventually. It is a huge source of information and tracks the history of the developments over a number of years. Suggestions for targets and calls for observations are posted on the connected spectro-l forum though

Cheers
