Where are the preivous NT Insider Articles now

Contents of OSRONLINE were retired as of may 2026. Does that mean all the previous NT Insider Articles are not available anymore? I still find some of them are highly useful.

We’re in the process of cleaning up some infrastructure stuff and have decided to retire OSROnline.com. We don’t currently have a set plan for hosting older content.

Is it possible to compile them in a package for later viewing?

Sure, anything is possible :smiley: But like I said we just don’t have a plan for it at the moment. When/if we do we’ll certainly announce it here.

The old NT Insider articles, at least the ones that are still relevant, were updated, edited, and moved a long time ago to OSR.com:

try here: The NT Insider – OSR

and here: OSR Learning Library – OSR

I am serious disappointed that these aren't easier to find/access. The articles on OSRONLINE have been "dead" for more than ten years.

specifically, i’m looking for these 2 articles which should appear somewhere around 2006:

  1. Master of the Obvious -- MDLs are Lists that Describe Memory
  2. More on MDLs - MDLs Are Opaque

Personally, i still found that they are the best tutorials about MDL. And, they are still referenced by other online tutorials about MDLs.

Unfortunately, the above link contains articles appear only after 2009.

Thanks for that.

Hmmm... I not sure why those articles never made the transition.

I suspect that at this point they now live only in our fond memories.

Here they are -- I hope it's ok that I'm posting this:

The original URLs were:

Note that I just picked the latest snapshot for each of those URLs on the Wayback Machine -- there are earlier versions also, if those are relevant. Click on the timeline at the top to navigate to those.
