Christian,
You are absolutely correct that we have had dead forums since May. We are dead
in the water at the moment, but are working frantically to get the new server
online. The problem is that we were being (very generously) hosted on a computer
that was/is being run on a corporate DMZ setup and because of that, only the
employee had access to the box. That individual has had some family emergency
that has kept him completely offline, so we have had to rebuild the server
totally from scratch (site software and all).
We have added a few new people to the effort and will have multiple admin access
as well as copious backups when we do come back online. It might still be a few
weeks, but we are coming back, and better than ever. More to come.
Thanks again everyone for your patience.
Geoff Gray
