Good news, site and downloads will stay up even with everything being submitted to the internet archive:

ROMhacking.net runs on top of my web backend platform that other projects and clients use. For obvious security reasons, this is not something that can be given away or taken. It contributes to my livelihood. After what happened, I am no longer in a position to support any partnership options. As previously mentioned, I’ve already provided the site database and files to the Internet Archive. New efforts by others will be required. Anyone can pick things up and continue. What’s there is far more than I had when I started! I’m sure there are some innovators out there that can do the job!Source: https://www.romhacking.net/
What I can still do is redirect sectional links from RHDN to a new site. This would allow for the existing RHDN links all over the web to continue to be valid, and presumably allow editing to continue at their new location. I saw the promising ‘NeoRHDN’ project by NinCollin on the forum. They have the right idea with an upstanding approach. I look forward to seeing how it develops as a possible option.
As a continued courtesy, the site and downloads will remain online. News is open for project releases and updates. The forum is open for active ROM hacking projects.
