>> Hello all,
>>
>> As some of you have already noticed, our community site and source
>> repository have been offline for several days. Something must have
>> happened to the server at Jason's house whilst the family is away on
>> vacation, as I can't access it remotely by any means. Sadly,
>> this means
>> that registered and Trustware subscribers can't reach their
>> download areas
>> and nobody can purchase subscriptions and renewals until
>> Jason returns home
>> and restarts the server.
>>
>> As though this were not enough of a problem, we also have a transient
>> problem with the main website www.ibobjects.com, which runs
>> off a hosted
>> web server. We have run out of disk space there, which means I
>> can't update
>> the website (to inform you about the problems with the other
>> servers!) and
>> I can't upload any special kits to there for people with
>> urgent requirements.
>>
>> The second situation may right itself overnight if/when the
>> hosting service
>> does its housekeeping, as I deleted quite a few large photos
>> from the site
>> - notably baby pics and photos from various events. However,
>> because the
>> ftp server won't allow me to upload/update anything - including page
>> updates -- the home page and the events page now look like a dog's
>> dinner. Apologies for this eyesore!
>>
>> Downloads from the "Downloads" page still work OK. Anyone
>> with any urgent
>> requirements, please contact me (respond@...). If
>> necessary, I
>> can upload materials to the firebird-books.net site to help
>> out with an
>> emergency.
>>
>> All should settle down next week when Mr Wharton is back in
>> residence. :-)
