The box-admins team is reponsible for seeing that the community shared server is maintained and setting up any new features to be hosted on that server.
In September we
1. Yakov Zaytsev built and began maintaining a QNX version of the Squeak VM and we set him up with an account and area within the Squeak FTP site to make the QNX VM and related files availablable.
2. Helped manage the SVN repositories.
3. Helped with a GMANE issue.
4. Setup an account and area within the Squeak FTP site for the Developer's Image project.

5. Around the 26th or 27th all services stopped working rather suddenly due to a billing problem. As quickly as possible this issue was addressed but it took a few days for the servers to come back up.
I want to thank the community for the monetary support needed to fund these boxes and remind them that the bills continue to appear and that you can currently contribute to the hosting bills by going to
http://discuss.squeakfoundation.org/
and clicking on the 'donate' button at the top right. Note that a donation here may be used for other Squeak Foundation services including but not limited to development, development infrastructure, and promotion of Squeak.
The services being hosted have continued to grow and include (but are not limited to):
SqueakMap - http://map.squeak.org/
http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/
http://discuss.squeakfoundation.org/
http://source.squeakfoundation.org/
http://update.squeakfoundation.org/
and DNS services for squeak.org and squeakfoundation.org domain names.
