Thanks, Tom. I wonder how the "DOWNLOAD PUPPY 3.01Get the latest official version" can be removed from the front page. (The latest version is 4.00.) I've tried to, but can't figure it out.

Also, the URL to the old wikka ( http://puppylinux.org.wikka ) goes into the wiki archives (of the new site), so am putting the URL of the old wikka in the archive pages in case members wanted to access the old site (now renamed to http://pupweb.org/wikka ).

I wondered about that too raffy.
I created a new official release description for 4.00 in the hope it would propagate through but no joy.
For anyone getting messed about by wobbly dns queries the following entries in /etc/hosts should help whilst the name servers stablise.

I've fixed the CSS for Internet Explorer. If anyone could have a quick look at the site in IE6 and IE7 and let me know if anything is still broken. I don't think the dashed borders show up in IE6, I'll fix that when I get the time.

Cheers

Is it possible that we've had too many hits already? We always get a huge surge in hits when a new version is released.

I think it's a combination of that and not having optimised Drupal with things like caching and throttling. When we get the site back up (WhoDo doesn't seem to be replying at the moment, probably in bed -- I'm trying to see if hostgator will let me do it anyway) I'll try and see if the situation can be improved with these optimisation procedures, otherwise we may have to start thinking about how to finance a dedicated server.
