Announcement: Official move to redump.info!
Posted: Sat Jun 20, 2026 4:49 pm
As many of you are aware, there have been longstanding issues with the redump.org site infrastructure. Basic features such as HTTPS have been missing and the project staff have been unable to address this due to the site being tightly controlled by an inactive administrator.
This has become increasingly untenable over the course of the past year, with major site outages and issues causing real concern that data could be permanently lost. Staff have made multiple attempts over several years to contact the redump.org admin to ask for these issues to be addressed, but all of these efforts have been either rebuffed or outright ignored. We believe that the work done here at Redump is very important for long-term preservation of data, which has necessitated this shift to ensure the project is successful for many years to come.
As a result, this year we decided to take the initiative and move to a new site, giving us a more solid and modern codebase to work from, and a more collaborative governance structure ensuring that major site decisions cannot be locked behind the availability of any single member of the team.
That site is now live at https://redump.info/ and as of today will be the official home of the Redump project. All of the existing data has been imported over and you may notice a number of immediate improvements, as well as some key changes to submission processes.
We have a Getting Started Guide on the wiki at (https://wiki.redump.info/Getting_Started_Guide) to answer some of your immediate questions and help you get started on submitting to the new site.
The Redump staff would like to thank all of you for your patience as we've worked through this process, and over the past few years in dealing with the difficulties presented by the old site. We ask for your continued patience as we get up and running, as it will take everyone some time to get fully up to speed. In particular, for the moment we ask that you keep a note of any feature requests you might have. We will soon be announcing an official process for submitting these, and we have many ideas of our own, but for now our focus is on making this transition as seamless as possible.
This marks an exciting new day for the Redump project and we're happy to have such an amazing community of contributors to this vital work. We look forward to you joining us in continuing that work as we move to this next stage in the project.
