GraphicsMagick.org issues

There have been severe network reliability issues reaching 
GraphicsMagick.org since December 22nd.  This network is served by a 
low-speed DSL line with a routed network which has been in service 
since 2001.

It appears that AT&T has replaced its DSL equipment on the other end 
and there are interoperability problems with the DSL modem I have (and 
I suspect severe problems with the other end as well).  AT&T has sent 
me a replacement "router" which has no available documentation and has 
assured me that it is a trivial undertaking to replace my modem/router 
setup with their "router" since all one needs to do is plug it in, 
visit a web page, and enter a password.  Unfortunately, this is not a 
trivial undertaking since this is a routed network with specialized 
forwarding/firewall rules which need to be re-created and the "router" 
might not even support this capability.  Support from AT&T is 
non-existent.

In my available free time I have been configuring a much more robust 
new router which I hope to use with AT&T's "router" in bridged mode. 
Since it is already Wednesday, it won't be until this weekend that I 
can take a stab at replacing the hardware.

All is well with the systems which comprise my network and hopefully 
GraphicsMagick.org (and simplesystems.org) will return to normal 
function soon.
