The Mistress database system ("msdb", etc. etc.) is currently in a state
of flux here.  A new version is about to be installed, and some of the
old stuff has stopped working temporarily in the confusion.  Please bear
with us on this, and let us know if anything crucial is being delayed --
we may be able to improvise a connection to the new version for something
vital.  The situation should be cleared up by mid-month.
