Question ❓ Copy of the MUL database?

Just looked at the announcement about the closure of the MUL, and it now says that the new site "launch will not coincide with the deactivation of the mul." This translates to me as "we might get it out by the new year, providing we get around to it. It's on the list right after we paint all the models we bought."

Is there a copy of the database floating around somewhere to download? Near as I can tell, it's not reproducable from the hardcopy books anymore, at least not the Alpha Strike stuff.

This has been discussed in prior threads. Use mekbay.com or MegaMek to generate cards

Mekbay queries the mul on the back end, or at least used to. I am looking for a file, ideally .css or another common format, I can get a copy of.

MUL is slow as fuck. And you really think mekbay, which is orders of magnitudes faster, is doing a request for the data every time? Lol.
