Hi Javier,
We're aware of this problem and we've been trying a lot of different
things over the past few days to try to fix it. Sorry that this is being
frustrating for you, but we (both IS&T staff and volunteers) are putting a
bunch of effort into debugging and resolving this issue and trying various
things, and we think we have some leads on possible resolutions. This will
unfortunately take at least a few days to thoroughly work out, develop,
and test, but we are working on the problem.
