From IRC:

"The intention of both sysops is to restore sites. this involves a third human, whose full cooperation and remediation is needed to accomplish. this is the cause for continued delay. if it can be made to happen, then it will. if not, then not. no prognosis, no ETA at present. everyone is equally unsatisfied"

Finally, some news on this! I hope they come back up. Been a member there since 2005.

as like happening before, after your joining?

So it will not be UP soon. I don't think they are making any progress or it will take a long time for them to solve their problems. Choosing a third human is not an easy task and it may take a lot of time.
