It seems that having only one person able to access the server files is a
poor idea for various reasons including business continutiy, reliability
and issues lie this one.
I don't have the skills for the job, but there must be someone in the
community that does?

Hi Chris, I know, I know, it's a huge problem we've been having. All the
extensions are also down, and some domains like the QRPedia one and the
stats.wikimedia.org.uk one are also not working, and have not been doing so
for a while. I'm told that Tom Morton is trying to fix things but I think
he's part time, and I keep on asking for updates about when things might be
fixed, but I've not heard anyhting about when they might be fixed. Things
are going as fast as he can manage, I suppose, but without a full time
person to do this on staff, and with Tom the only person who has access to
the server files, it's all going very slowly. Trust me nobody is more
frustrated about it all than me.
