[edit] History

Dutchfurs.com gradually took over from FurrySearch, a website hosted by Cytag back in the 90's. Initially the site was closely tied to the mailing list, but gradually the website and the mailinglist did go in another direction, especially after the Cytag was disbanded. The site started on a home-server at Pegla's place, but after two migrations, the website was being transferred to FurBase in 2004, and in 2006 it was being transferred to Stormdragon, which still hosts the site this very day.

[edit] Downtime & updates

Between November 24 and May 24 the frontpage was not updated, first the site was down during the first week of December as the website migrated to a new server, hosted by stormdragon, which is maintained by Hiryu.

Due to personal circumstances of the news feed editor, there were no news items posted for an extended period of time, but since May 24th the website is updated again.^[1]
