I don't wish to rag on them (too much, heh), but I pleaded with them to add more FTP guys (currently only two or three, AFAICT), and they never did. I even volunteered for it myself despite not really wanting the job, and they ignored that too.

Aitor is heavily behind due to work (but slowly catching up?), Blair is seemingly always busy, Eric also has been busy lately and not as active as a few years ago (but still hopes I read the mailing list occasionally, which I very very rarely do, *sigh*), Jim is probably still on hiatus for school (he always did a lot of website maintainence and background server crud), and Pat is overloaded at work. I guess I could ask Pat nicely to do it, but I honestly figured that by posting it on their front page ("News" via Sourceforge) that they'd "figure it out" themselves. (BTW, remind me to update the UIDE post's date again, heh.) ;-)
