Thanks for the status report.

I had logged off of pkgbox right when I read your first message about the 
downtime. (So it was working this week :)

As far as I know, nobody else is using it. I am using pkgbox for two 
things: pkgsrc development and as a very useful resource for comparing and 
reviewing code for the various source trees. I was planning to also use it 
for doing documentation builds (handbook to PDF or HTML).
