We used to. Though we generally tolerate them rarely, like once per company per year.

My most recent status update was received a week or two ago. In that vein, if anyone wants to make some spiffy code to run the site, let me know.

Jay, who handles most of the tickets is a *volunteer* (as are all of us who run pm.org and the other perl sites.) About every two weeks he goes through all pending tickets and updates them. It's not a sexy job, and we're really happy that Jay has been doing it for so long. > The previous maintainer never gained access to the site, which is why > it wasn't updated last fall.
