[PW] ...Annnnd we're back

[John Franklin]

Sorry for the long delay. For those who haven't been reading my  
status updates on the website, the server was turned off and moved,  
as per spec, and then wouldn't boot in the new location.

Apparently, the problem arose from an update to the operating system  
which erased a custom driver which was needed for the system to boot.  
Greg Newby, our contact, worked night and day (literally) to fix the  
problem, which was complicated by the fact that he was in a different  
state from the actual machine, and further complicated by the fact  
that the people who actually have the machine are not familiar with  
the distribution of Linux which the server was using. (It has since  
been moved to the version they use.) All told, Mr. Newby spent around  
60 hours working on the problem, one way or another, and restoring  
the backups.

If you'd like to show your appreciation, remember that our host is  
Project Gutenberg, and Mr. Newby would undoubtedly be cheered by a  
sudden influx of donations from W0mbats. Or by a bunch of W0mbats  
volunteering to add new works to the database. The website is, of  
course, at
http://www.gutenberg.org/

So, er, we're back. Enjoy!

P.S. Server logs suggest that people have picked up on my little  
coded messages. (I have way too much fun with these things.) I'll  
have to come up with something further to entertain the clever people  
out there. Once the latest coded message is resolved and I'm stuck  
somewhere, I'll spend the time devising a new mechanism.
