Me too.

I think there's a disconnect between the community that went so far as to create a nonprofit org for itself, and the people who actually run that org (and through the org, the actual website). If one creates an org, one would think, it is to ensure the community -- first and foremost -- is up and running. And if it goes down, it gets back up in a timely manner (e.g., days, not months).

If the org can't minimally do that, I don't see the purpose of it. There's no great science or art to running a large online community. It just takes a leased server and some folks who want to help out.
