Dear John,
If WMUK no longer has a technology budget you might want to consider asking
if another chapter would be willing to support QRpedia. It is only because
it started in the UK that it was hosted by the UK chapter, it is actually a
global resource.

Hi Chris, I know, I know, it's a huge problem
we've been having. All the
extensions are also down, and some domains like the QRPedia one and the
stats.wikimedia.org.uk one are also not working, and have not been doing
so for a while. I'm told that Tom Morton is trying to fix things but I
think he's part time, and I keep on asking for updates about when things
might be fixed, but I've not heard anyhting about when they might be fixed.
Things are going as fast as he can manage, I suppose, but without a full
time person to do this on staff, and with Tom the only person who has
access to the server files, it's all going very slowly. Trust me nobody is
more frustrated about it all than me.
