You are not the only one. ;-) The status of the move is being tracked in this bug report: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127895 It looks like all prerequisites for the move have been fulfilled, and the only thing missing is to configure a web server on a new machine. > There are, it seems, several people who have write access to the web > server (Raphael Quinet?

As far as I know, only Manish (Yosh) and Shawn have root access to the web server. So they are probably the only ones who can make the transition that everybody is waiting for. I have an account on wilber, the machine hosting the old web site (the current www.gimp.org) and the developers' site (developer.gimp.org), but I do not have an account on mmmaybe. Note that like most other users on wilber, I only have a normal user account without root access. >From what I read from Yosh, it looks like the web server should move to a different machine and I do not know who has an account on it. I don't know if there is anything that can be done to help Yosh or Shawn. I have offered my help a couple of times, but it looks like the only thing that is missing now is some spare time for Yosh. -Raphael
