[linux-audio-dev] any news concerning the lad site?

[Joern Nettingsmeier]

hi paul, benno, everybody!


tried to reach you in private, but haven't heard anything back so far.
the lad site has been offline for quite a while now, and i find the
entire issue pretty frustrating... it's not exactly what i would call
"high availability". :(

i'd just write the whole site off if it weren't for the fact that i used 
to be listed as webmaster and people keep writing to me complaining 
about broken links.

please, someone step up and do something about it.
