www.klango.net is still there but it only contains the explanation of their shutting down and a few words about not giving permission to share the open source, or software items. the archive was indeed accesible to everyone, I fail to see why they make such fuss about it. for a company in need of incomes, they sem to be able to find money for a law suit. I was, in 2010, discussing with them alternatives to have sponsors to finance the development. but, nothing could be achieved and they remained absolutely silent since 2011. questions were being asked, over and over again, from users in the forums, and we were totally unable to provide any precise answer. i therefore quit what was refered to as the senate.
as charles said, they shut down the means of making money. In fact, everything was based on klango points which could be obtained through something I couldn't use at the time. itworked with obile phones Ibelieve. they found this too expensive to work with and then made the voice forums and voice messages free. In 2012 they did not renew their licence with ivona voices, which was a part of their new release. so when I installed klango on my new puchased netbook, it crashed immediately because the ivona voices could no longer be installed. we heard absolutely nothing, and I mean not one word from the developpers despite numerous attempts at contacting them. The ultimate goal of those developpers was to make something commercial which happened to be a failure however great was their software. Suddenly, although it was predictable, they shut the whole thing down including klango.net.
They specialize in cripto stuff for businesses. That being said, they really should have tuns of money. They could have put simple ads up on Klango and made it mainstream, then they could have earned a lot more money. Hell, it could have even become popular and it could have put Facebook and Twitter out of business! I say this because Facebook and Twitter both destroy their accessibility in favor of ads, while Klango could have earned money and made their services accessible at the same time, there for earning them way more customers than FB and TW combined. No contest.
Yes, it's a pity because it was a good program. They could have sold the program to another company such as Raimersoft,who owns Tapin Radio and a couple of other players.
After long deliberations, where and how, I decided to temporarily place the archive on the Elten server. Any sensible cloud would not be able to cope because of traffic, for example, for Dropbox, the limit is 200GB per day, considering the size of the archive it is not so difficult to obtain. I do not know how long the archive will stay here, presently we have enough free disk space on server, but treat this link as temporary and download the file as soon as possible.
The archive size is 14.3GB, it is constructed in the form of html files. You should, of course, run the index.html file. Compression has been made in the rar5 format.
The archive contains all language forums: snapshot on May 20, 18:00, Polish and English forum on May 24, 11:30.
Holy cow, that is a huge size. Too bad we only have 15 gb per month, I'm gonna use them all up when I download it because 2.53 gb are allready used up.
All the data I've archived (including plenty of groups etc) has a size of like 40GB or so. :) I suspect that Klango's database must have used like 100GB of disk space.

Shoot for the Moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.
Holy sh**. Since I only have interest in the English and German forums, it would be good to split them up, may be create an apache index page or something like that, I mean like grossgang.com, were you can download the files splitted. Please don't get me wrong, grossgang.com just meant to be an example of such a directory listing, this site doesn't host the archive.
That is quite a large amount. I wouldn't be able to download all of it, since I have a limit on my data. Although I would like to look at some of them, at least the english ones.
