Huh, I missed the initial message on this thread. I wonder if this
mailing-list manager is having trouble delivering things. I imagine it's
largely unmaintained?

Anyway, there's been some changes in the last few weeks to the website,
e.g., https://sourceforge.net/p/amanda/www/512/ -- so there might be
something going on. I don't know who Shipra is, though (
https://sourceforge.net/u/developershipra/profile/).
