Indablog

Unfortunately, Indaba is essentially down again because of problems with Dreamhost. This time it’s apparently their sendmail system. Only about a third of the confirmation emails and other notifications are being sent out properly. This has been going on since at least Thursday. Voting still works, but registration is such a mess that it’s become impossible to use Indaba to support any large scale polls. The Dreamhost techs say they don’t see a problem on their end, which is what they said for a week two months ago… until they found their problem.

The optimal move would be to leave Dreamhost, of course. I’ve reached the point where it’s clear that I’ve got to stop working with them to help them fix their problem, and start moving the site.
