R devel - Apr 2015 - CRAN submit page down

Andrie noticed that first, and I can confirm: from our end, it looks as if
the backend to http://cran.r-project.org/submit.html is currently down.

This still seems to be the case.  

I tried uploading the most recent version of psych and got as far as the Step 3
page which says that it has sent out an email.
However, although normally this step takes agout 1 minute, nothing has happened
for 16 hours.

Should we just use the old system of uploading to the ftp site and sending a
confirming email?

Thanks of course to the CRAN maintainers without whom this amazing system would
not exist.

The sysadmins in Vienna will try to fix the problems on Monday.

The submission page says so now.

I'd be happy if non-urgent package submissions can be deferred until the 
web submission page is working again. In case of really urgent 
submissions, please go ahead with ftp uploads but *please* send the 
mails in the format the CRAN team asks for in the CRAN policies.

Thanks, sorry for the inconvenience and best wishes,
Uwe Ligges
