That's not the first the time I hear about this unresponsiveness of the 
GNU webmasters.

An alternative idea would be to migrate the whole thing to a Wiki. Then 
every developer using guile could enter information about the project 
and update it. Of course discipline in such tasks varies among 
developers, but at least the burden would be taken away from the guile 
people, and the up-to-dateness of an entry could be seen as a measure of 
the project's activeness.

Just a suggestion. Unfortunately I can offer hardly any help because I 
never set up a Wiki and also have a quite tight schedule.


Please CC me, I'm not on the list.
