Regular visitors to M* will have noticed lately that we were out of service for several days last week. In addition, there was a time that we considered shutting down the site for several reasons. Since then, we have gotten some additional technical support and another permablogger. We will be attempting to move to a new server. So, service may continue to be spotty.
Here is the bottom line: we are trying to keep M* going. We are optimistic we will be able to for the next few months. Keep on signing on to see how things progress.
