There hasn't been much action for a while, I suspect that Andre has a
serious job ;)

This is an irritating for anybody wishing to update their
PROJECT.luaforge.net pages, in fact Andre was offering to upload stuff
for people.

At the time, there was a serious proposal to get an 'interim' luaforge
replacement up using Drupal, but the dog-fooders (including myself)
felt that it had to be Lua-based.  Maybe it would not have been such a
bad idea (the concern was that any 'interim' solution would become the
final solution.)

But this crisis goes beyond language pride?

On another note, it would be useful if big LuaForge project owners
would drop a status report into lua-l occaisionally. Many people did
not know that Kepler had migrated en masse to github.
