A message shown to me on 5 February indicated that the author was in the
process of unsnarling a mess with his hosting provider.  As of today,
the site seems back online.  However, as others have indicated in this
thread, the Kagi link for actually purchasing a license is invalid, and
redirects to the main Kagi site.

I'll give Mr. Harris a chance to get that online again as well, but in
the meantime, I'm going to check out Path Finder with its 30-day free
trial.
