Yes, the list stays up. Not being approved means we don't get web
hosting (which we weren't using), and we don't get an Ubuntu care
package every release (which i haven't ordered in over a year). It
doesn't really change anything at the moment. If we actually get
rolling again at some point, it only takes 2-3 events + plans for the
future to get approved again.
