My apologies to anyone who has attempted to visit the Maemo Bug Jar
blog (http://www.octofish.net/bugjar/) over the past few days. My web
host suffered the failure of a core bit of networking equipment.

This will be the last Bug Jar published on Thursday. The next edition
will bring a long overdue change to publishing on Mondays.
