As I'm sure you are aware Modshrine.com has not been operating for a while. Modshrine.com was run
on a personal computer from January 2002 to October 2005. When I moved in 2005 the hard drive
crashed (probably as a result of being moved). Luckily I had backups of all the songs and compos
but what I didn't have a backup of was the database. It took a long time but I was able to recover
a reasonably recent version of the tables some by manual entry and some off the broken hard drive
(freezer).
Since January 2005 I have paid for an offsite server but it wasn't until now that I got around
to re-writing the scripts (for a newer version of both SQL and PHP) and uploaded all the data
from my home server to the new one. We lost a lot of compo data (specifically April, May, June,
July, August, September, October of 2005). Since that point compos were not being officially
recorded. You can visit the old modshrine database

Right now there are no official plans to make a new one, but we have the past.
