The crux of the matter is that no-one has contributed for nearly four
years and, as Tommie said, the only reason to move the stuff is if
anyone wants to add to it.

The project page has solicited input for more than four years, but
obviously it hasn't had any.

I suggest that for the DSSSL Documentation Project to return to life,
it would take more than just Brandon.

dsssldoc.org is available, and SourceForge can be set as a "virtual
host" for a domain name.  Heck, I'd spring for the cost of the domain
name if that was all that it would take to revive the DSSSL
Documentation Project, but neither a new location nor a dedicated
domain name are going to make a difference.  What's needed are people
contributing to the project.

(And, no, I can't commit to contributing to it any more.)
