Hi, Ævar and all,
Those servers need a lot of love. People other than me have been doing some work on it recently. We're very interested in getting more people involved. Are you interested in helping in any way?
I am. However, what I can do depends on what kind of help you need. Say, my *nix skills are far from excellent.
I'm now subscribed to maps-l@, so I can follow the discussion there.
