Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.
The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.
This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.
Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.
The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.

/pkg#32989pkg/reexec: use const for name of test binary
Also use a slightly different name, because "reexec" is used so
widely as term in this package, making it somewhat confusing.
pkg/reexec: make platform-agnostic (again)
relates to:
The reexec package originally was platform-agnostic, but gained some
Linux-specific handling in 1cb17f0.
When Windows support was implemented in Docker, the pkg/reexec package
was adjusted accordingly in 64715c4,
which now made the package with with either Linux or Windows, with various
other platforms (freebsd, solaris, darwin) being added back in separate
changes.
Based on the history above, this package should be platform-agnostic, except
for Linux-specific changes introduced in 1cb17f0
and 5aee880.
This patch
pkg/reexec: Command: separate public API from implementation
Move the exported
Commandto a platform-agnostic file, and un-exportthe platform-specific implementations. This allows us to maintain the
GoDoc in a single place, describing platform-specific differences where
needed.
