The PRD was created as an analogon of the Queer Resources Directory. Mikes first idea was to manage a subdirectory in the QRD, but to create a separate Pedosexual Resources Directory was the better solution.
The PRD started in Jan. 1995 on a privately owned and maintained system. The access was increasing exponentially. In July 1995 it was closed because it was too successful - ca. 400,000 hits in the last month (after ca. 200,000 hits in the month before) was too much for this site. Thanks to the owner of this site for his help.
In Feb. 1996 the PRD was installed again at www.c2.org. It has been there over some period of time and has collected more than a million hits. After the shutdown, Mike has tried some time to put it online again but without success.
Now, a new attempt has started.
