What's up doc ?


17/08/2007 :
I think you have noticed the Google Ads. I need that to pay the huge amount of bandwidth.

10/06/2010 :
The repo is back and seems to wok.
I forgot that my repo is now so big (6 GB) and I don't have a local backup so I restored all data with my DSL connection (22 hours were needed...).

Otherwise I forgot to backup the mailing list data, so I lost people subscribed to dmo-changes and dmo-discussion and thus you must subscribe again to that list.
To subscribe to dmo-changes send an e-mail to with subscribe in the subject.
