Aminet: Status-Update
Pressemitteilung:  The Aminet main server is currently suffering from stability problems and had to be taken offline. The exact reasons for the problems are unknown and the whole issue requires further investigation. Unfortunately, we're pretty busy with other things right Right now, another server is acting as the main server. It uses a simplified, not database-driven interface which lacks a few of the features that were introduced recently. Additionally, we're not able to accept uploads right now, but a solution to the latter problem is already being worked on.

We're sorry about the problems, rest assured we'll take care of them as soon as possible.

The Aminet-Team (cg) (Translation: aj)
