Who's Minding GotDotNet?

I was looking around on www.gotdotnet.com for sample files and was shocked to see the sorry state of some sections.

The User Samples area includes a totally bogus banking application called "PROJECTS IN BANKING" (actually a useless ASP Classic file) and an entry called "MCE Crack" which appears to be some sort of cracker's or warez tool as an executable. Meanwhile, the Resource Centre features a spam link to a recruiter's site.

Maybe GotDotNet has fallen out of favour since CodePlex came on the scene, but GDN is still a valuable community resource. It needs a caretaker/moderator who can at least get rid of the garbage every day.

Feedback sent.

Who ever cared about GotDotNet? This site has never been out of beta and was full of bugs.

It fell out of my favor long before I ever heard of codeplex.
