The Ruby Forum is "down for maintenance" after a number of security breaches on the server where it was hosted. The maintenance will probably include changing the hosting arrangements, and relaunching on RForum (a Rails-based BBS written by Andreas Schwarz and yours truly). P.S. Forget the passing woodpecker - what will destroy civilization is an evil bastard with spare time. -- Best regards, Alexey Verkhovsky Ruby Forum: http://ruby-forum.org (moderator) RForum: http://rforum.andreas-s.net (co-author) Instiki: http://instiki.org (maintainer)
