What's up with LJ, and where do I find analogs for LJ-SGA sites on Dreamwidth?

Like many others, I'm not really comfortable with accepting TOS that I can't read in the legally-binding format because I don't read Russian. I want to say, "WTF -- LJ has been operating for how many years in English that doesn't appear to be a translation, and now you want us to accept terms written in Russian? I don't think so!!!" I'm pretty sure that the original terms with which I agreed were in English, so why the change?

I've been reading stories on Dreamwidth for awhile, but am nowhere close to as familiar with finding things on this site as I am with some others. Specifically, I'm looking for Dreamwidth sites that mirror or cover the same content as the LJ Stargate Atlantis Story Search and Stargate Atlantis Genre-Finder sites.

Sorry for the small rant, and any help to find particular content on Dreamwidth would be greatly appreciated!

squidgiepdx is hosting a multifandom community directory, and there are tons of Stargate related ones. I'm not sure if the fic search or genre finder communities have been mirrored onto DW, though.

Obviously, there must be many loyal fans who want to continue being part of this community, so thank you for offering a resource. Only problem is that the link takes me to (quaintly amusing ways of saying) 404. Could you please check the link again? Thanks on behalf of all seeking.

Oh, I'm sorry! I must have messed up the HTML. I'll just paste the links in directly:

Yay. And now the original post has been included in the roundup for the May 13 Newsletter, boosting the signal.

Fantastic idea! A masterlist of comms would be so useful, so the more who see (and suggest things) the better!
