If you know folks who have not been here in a while, ask them if they need help getting back on.

EDIT: Updated with my new US contact details.

How to get back on:

E-mail me directly at vanderaj@gmail.com or SMS/WhatsApp/iMessage on +1 510-697-9315 (my new US number). Generally, you'll be back on within 24 hours. I'm traveling all over the world so my time zone is probably not your time zone.

What is stopping them just resetting their password?

Password reset doesn't work, for the most part.

Over time, we have suffered e-mail problems on our server. Right now it does (sort of) work, but due to technical gubbins in the mail itself, most Australian ISPs send our mails directly to /dev/null (the trashcan). If it gets through, many e-mail clients often mischaracterise our e-mails as spam. We can't win.

So we have to process resets manually. We've been pretty good recently at password resets, but I've also seen folks just give up as it's just all too hard. I'm making myself available to you to get back on. Please let everyone know at clubs and events.

thanks,
Andrew

Please let me know if anyone is still locked out. I fixed the mail system a little while ago, but I must admit to not seeing many mails from the system.

Notification: registering does not work, in that after registering:

- no email is sent with user name and password
- the registration webpage simply shows a blank page with the header after registration, with no data displayed as to whether registration was successful or not.

Workaround is to use the Lost Password form, which then sent a new password successfully.

Off topic, but... a redirect on aussieveedubbers.com to the forum would be better than the centos page that appears and would help with SEO

Given his lack of activity on this website and the dramatic drop of active and new members , this would be considered an abandoned website.
