<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The '''Digiweb hosting crisis''' refers to an episode in the Spring of 1997 when Digiweb, a commercial internet provider that hosted [[BoyChat]] and several other on-line BL resources, sent an email to all webmasters of [[boylove]] related websites. Digiweb's management explained that they would no longer be willing to host sites with boylove content, and gave all webmasters a deadline by which to remove their sites.<br />
<br />
This crisis was the impetus for the creation of the organization that later became the [[Free Spirits Committee]].<br />
<br />
The members of the [[BoyChat Steering Committee]] met the challenge and raised enough money to move [[BoyChat]], [[BoyLinks]], [[FPC]], and various other boards and pages to a more robust commercial server. In the process a spirit of activism overwhelmed the BoyChat community, and many projects, both public and private, were born.<br />
