Padraic, it's now 7 months since I raised this and 5 months since you said you'd do it. If it's not going to happen I'd like to know...

I have over a thousand registered users (though half are locked spam! ) and my forum currently says it will re-open in March! As well as being disappointing, it makes me look a bit stupid...
