On-line Indexes / Databases :
My ISP - Chariot have moved all former Pipeline

problems - I am still waiting for them to fix the on-line databases that
have not worked since they moved them. I apologise for the
inconvenience but it is out of my hands at the moment. 21
September 2006 - this problems appears to have been fixed - fingers

- Geelong & District Mailing List &
Bellarine Peninsula Mailing List : One of the Rootsweb servers is
"partaking in conniptions of a disruptive nature" - in other
words many of the Rootsweb Mailing Lists are currently not
working. For updates and the latest information always check the
Rootsweb Help page.
If you think you might have bounced off a list for reasons other than
the Rootsweb server problem, you can always check the lists you're
subbed to at Rootsweb
Password Central. In the meantime, just be patient - the
Rootsweb guru (an Aussie!) is working night and day to resolve the
problem, so rest assured that the Mailing Lists will be functioning
again as soon as is humanly possible (then again, Andrew is
super-human so maybe even quicker! <vbg>). Andrew has been
able to notify all List Admins of the progress but it's impossible to
notify all subscribers. Generally when Andrew notifies us, the
Help page is also updated. Please also be aware that once mail
for the Mailing Lists starts flowing again, it will take a while for
it to settle down to "normal" - because of a large backlog
of messages, they will be fed through in small doses and could be out
of chronological order. Remember that this is a wonderful free
service and people are doing their best to sort this out for us. .....
