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

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.
