Sorry for that. The server that hosts trac-hacks.org had an issue, and of
course (thanks, Murphy) this happened while I was enjoying a short holiday
trip. The server was restarted via "remote hands", but the trac-hacks.org
vserver encountered a problem during start-up and thus hang shortly after
the (host) server was restarted. I didn't notice the hang before now, when
I checked my e-mails now.

The good thing is that this incident pointed me to a bunch of things that
should be changed to prevent similar incidents in the future.

Sorry, but no, that's not been the reason. That step would have been
announced in advance and would not have resulted in a down-time of more
than a day.

As for the "damn, move your a** and upgrade to 0.12 now!" issue: I've
mentally reordered my personal to do list during my vacation, and as a
result that item is now almost on top of that list again. Which brings me
to:

That would be awsome! But I think the most important thing that needs to
be done before it's possible to get helping hands in the boat in general
(and hopefully not only for this particular upgrade) is to get a "where
are we today and what is missing" kind-of-a-post here on the list. The
idea is to identify action items that then can be taken care of by those
who are interested to help with that. I'll try to get such a post out of
the door during the next days, but most possible not before upcoming
wednesday.

Bye, Mike
