What exactly is the url intended?

I'm getting a "Page not found" from that URL. Please can you check url?

Right. Whose task is this? Where are the pages to be maintained?
I started a BKN/BibJSON FAQ page in Google Docs.
I'm glad to help with content but do not want to be dealing with server admin and version control.
I would be glad to see  http://www.bibkn.org/bibjson/index.html
ported to a new location suitable for update and version control. For that matter,  it would be best if
www.bibkn.org were taken over by this group for sys admin and OKF assisted in some way with the maintenance.
I did have a very bad experience of OKF using an Amazon EC2 which got totally trashed.
What server should we be using for current BibJSON and BibServer project displays?
