In case you are wondering about those recent server problems....
>From a message by one of the key techies:

   ...probably the mess up is related with a backup job for the databases on
   inglis. techies working on stallman/inglis know that we have several
   problems and patches (but not solutions) with this machines. one of them
   is the high load on the database server inglis...

which translates (partially) into 'no matter how much disk we add, the
various IMCs manage to overfill it' and 'we are trying to get regular
database backups running'

The problem is being managed at the moment and all seems technically quiet
for this weekend.
