    Baiju ran out of time to support it. Currently, he even has the server for it turned off. He works at RiskMetrics now (my previous place of employment) and I met him for the first time on Thursday when I stopped by to say hello (and play fooz). I wrote articles for him a while back, when the publication was up and running. He said there have been some people interested in supporting it, and he might bring it back in the future.

    A previous thread doesn't shed much light. If you're bold you could go directly to:

    Registrant: BST Web Publishing (PERLMONTH-DOM) 81-11 45th Ave. #9E Elmhurst, NY 11373 US Domain Name: PERLMONTH.COM Administrative Contact, Technical Contact, Billing Contact: Thakkar, Baiju (BT2775) baiju12@YAHOO.COM BST Web Publishing 41-67 Judge Street Elmhurst, NY 11373 718-426-6687
      Thanks japh,
      I'll email them but I don't think we'll get much from them given the previous thread (which I couldn't find but that could be pilot error :)
