TI's "Processors Wiki" site will End-of-Life on January 15, 2021
« on: January 05, 2021, 12:35:26 am »
Was searching for "Linux Boot Sequence" when spotted this warning on all the wiki pages:
Quote
NOTICE: The Processors Wiki will End-of-Life on January 15, 2021. It is recommended to download any files or other content you may need that are hosted on processors.wiki.ti.com. The site is now set to read only.
i.e. https://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/The_Boot_Process

No clue why a big player like Texas Instruments will close a wiki site about its own products?!   :-//

Anyway, if you have any info you care about on that Texas Instrument's wiki, save it.

Assuming all of the content is under the creative commons licence, as is the case for that article, anyone who really cares, should copy it to their own Wiki.

wget?

You might need to fiddle with the command line options to get enough layers deep and download any files from associated download links, etc., but starting with something like 'wget -r -l10 -p -k https://processors.wiki.ti.com' would probably be a start.

Yeah I was looking into using wget or

https://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Special:Export

Since I have a server it would be a nice project to make a copy of the wiki and re-host it

Whatever that was, it's unrelated with the processors.wiki end of life.
