Hi All, we seem to have a lost a few news items and posts when the MySQL DB was restarted. Please bare with me as I try and find out what happened and how we can stop this happening again.

ADDITIONAL INFO from my ISP:
<blockquote>Hello Dominique,
The main problem has been identified as a quota overflow in one of the server partitions. The server crashed when an attempt was made to write to the user/password file and the file could not be re-saved. As this file is absolutely critical the server could not be re-started. As the area of risk has now been identified steps have been taken to guarantee that it will not happen again.
The only option was to restore from the last reliable back up which turned out to be about a week old I believe. As far as I can ascertain, it will not be possible to recover data from the intervening period. All I can say is that I apologise.</blockquote>

I must also apologise that this has happened and we will be trying to stop this happening again by doing out own backups as well. So, if you have registered between Feb 9th and Feb 16th, then PLEASE re-register as chances are that your information was lost!
