@UnexpectedBomb, why don't you take any macos9lives.com page source, let the Claude create a html page based on it and pass the final product to Bolkonskij or to whoever looks after the homepage to integrate?

@Bolkonskij, why so pesimistic? We all are still here, alive and kicking 

[IIO]

it has always been difficult for new members to find stuff in a 10 year old forums.
even finding back an old thread which you know about can get complicated when you are not able to recall a keyword to enter in a google search.

we were debating how to distill valuable info, especially about new developments and discoveries, into some sort of website for years, but it is not exactly easy.

I just might do that!

Two ideas on this:

1) Public read-only current-state page with G4 compatibility matrix (like I described above) accompanied by a submission form, so that people in the community like myself can submit updates to the site mods each time a new fix/solution/hack has been created/discovered, unlocking or improving some kind of OS 9 functionality. The page would be curated by the mods and updated at their discretion.

2) Mac OS 9 Wiki page that allows anyone in the community to provide updates on OS 9 breakthroughs. Much less work for the mods, but a greater chance of nonsense and/or half-baked, broken "fixes" to be published (although I'm not too worried about that, as this is a rather niche focus as far as Apple things go)
