From: "Fredrik Lundh" <effbot@telia.com>

>From the minor disaster department:
    starship.python.net is down.  It will be up again soon,
    but most of the contents have been lost in a major disk
    crash.  If you, for some reason, have mirrored portions
    of it, contact the maintainers.  More info here:
