Thanks! I've been working with jpds some, but it seems my ticket
didn't get very far. I could waited a few weeks to see if I ever got a
reply (it's only been a few days so far) but I figured I'd see how
folks on the list were feeling about getting our resources back on
track, since we do have other options.

For some background to this whole issue...

Nothing, not even basic updates, has been done because no one has had
access for many months (almost a year). When I brought the issue up
last several months ago with the sysadmins, I was pointed to Christer,
Christer lost access a while back and hasn't been able to regain it
because he hasn't had the time to follow up. Without his help I seemed
to have no recourse.

Now that we're formally getting things together and we actually have a
launchpad team showing the project admins (so, hopefully a reason for
the sysadmins to give us access), it's finally time to get these
things under control. The website is the last of the resources to be
handled.
