Perfect. Please feel free to switch the public server at any point. The 
old one was not reliable at all, such that a lot of data is missing and 
the one we have is less valuable. Making it stable again would be a 
large step forward.

If we could keep the old data accessible that would be amazing. Or even 
better, is it hard to allow people to download the original .json files 
(or regenerate them from the db)? Like this we could just download them 
one by one and reimport in case this is desired.

Cheers,
