I did try contacting Alexis through several channels and never
received a response. As with almost everything about IA/OL, except for
Karen's participation here, that appears to be a black hole.

    It's very sad. OL could be a wonderful resource, but the project is
completely opaque, nonresponsive to actual problems except for Karen,
based on an ancient and very cranky UI and a significantly corrupt
database, and there seems no prospect of any of that ever changing. I'd
be willing to support OL both financially and by trying to contribute
coding effort if I thought that there would be any point to doing so -
which there isn't as things stand now.
