Nowadays this seem to be a less pressing need but there still seem to be some parameter sets stored that are difficult to find elsewhere. However, the structure of the site is not simple so I can’t just make a bunch of files available. I’m sorry, you’ll have to wait until the site is up again — apologies again.

It might also be wise to reconsider these parameters that by now are 
likely somewhat oldish.

If memory serves me well both Peter Tieleman and Jochen Hub supply some 
lipid / membrane parameters on their websites.
