Thanks for digging.  I find that Haikuware itself is hung off that IP
[why in Germany?], and it is indeed very dead.

I've emailed Karl directly [hope *his* addy is still valid!]; maybe
he can tell us what happened.

If the loss is permanent, it seems to me pretty much of a disaster!
*Is* there another repository (where people can actually conveniently
upload projects)?

Frankly I'm getting worried that Haiku has stalled, and as it's very
important to me, that's scary...
