Take it easy, TUNESers!
No one stole our domain.
NTek is the Good Guys(TM) who host the www.tunes.org webserver,
and the domain name server, too.
Only, they are not always
as clairvoyant (to avoid problems)
as responsive (to fix problems) and
as trustful (to let me fix problems myself)
as I wish they were (half of them are personal friends from high-school).
Hence, both the DNS and web server have had quite a number of failures.
Which is why I seriously intend to move away from using their services.
I'll do that as soon as I'm back in Paris,
and have found an alternate solution.
Of course, the best solution would be just an improvement on at least
one of the above points.

NB:
http://www.tunes.org/~tunes and
http://www.tunes.org/~tunes/doc (or http://www.tunes.org/~fare/Tunes/)
should still work. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I've asked them to put at least a pointer to TUNES on their default home page,
and submitted an script to autotest the correctness of the virtual server
setup, but to no avail (yet). Bcc to them.
