There has been a shake up of the project as a whole, hence the
increase in coding activity and code releases. This has led to some
inconsistancies and problems with the various support sites and lists,
I think we're through the worst of it now.
As of yesterday both the www and ftp services of the two domains are
pointing at the same space which will remove this confusion.
