Ja, sehr wichtig und hilfreich das Projekt, gerade jetzt.

I don't speak German (unfortunately.) I find it unimaginable that there is no user documentation or a help forum available when a single server is down for such a long time. I have searched and searched through google and Yahoo, but there is no detailed information available, except on the site that has been out of service since all weekend.
I'm having much difficulty getting my static pages to work properly. I've installed the static page plugin successfully, and there are no error messages when I fill out the form to create a static page. It saves and shows a green check mark. However, there are no instructions anywhere for what is supposed to happen once it is saved and there seems to be no changes to the files on my server.
Does anyone know how a static page is supposed to show up after a link button is pressed on the main menu? Exactly what code should be placed on a link button to start the static page generation and to point it to a page?
If anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it. Send me your email address and I can provide even more details of my questions.
The term "static pages" is kind of misleading - static pages have no physical representation in your server's file system, they are generated dynamically from the database just like blog entries. The term "static" refers to the fact that the content of these pages is usually kind of static, i.e. not updated frequently.
You can either link to these pages from a menu in your template (i.e. like in Bulletproof) or use the static pages sidebar plugin (which lists all static pages automagically).
Both Jannis and me are quite engaged in our jobs currently, and both the worldcup of soccer and the terrible weather in germany make it hard to put work here.
Sadly we are not a paid project, and we only have that much support and server power, and no one to do 24/7 support on our servers.
We are working as hard as we can, and this will surely get resolved. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
The Sourceforge.net bug tracker and forums on Sourceforge are still up and running though.
To redirect DNS would make it even harder for us to get everything running up again.

Thanks for your suggestion. I had tried that, but it kept failing. In the mean time, further testing has showed me where the problem was.
On the form to fill out for defining the permalink it says "Defines a permalink for the URL. Needs the absolute HTTP path and needs to end with .htm or .html!" An absolute path to me means that it must include the "http://www.MyDomainName.com" to precede before the folder name of the blog, index.php, etc. So I was typing the full ABSOLUTE path with HTTP, domain name, etc, as instructed, and not the relative path that was showing up initially on the form. I just now removed the HTTP prefix information and left it as the relative address that they supply and it worked. Would you say that the instructions are incorrect?
And thank you very much for responding. It is so very frustrating to be without documentation or a forum to search for answers.

Did you have a look at the link you entered? The plugin suggests a default Permalink, simply append it to your base-url and follow it.
