[aprssig] Firenet.US Server Back Up!

[Gerry Creager]

I'm still trying to get the thing working right. I've been bouncing
between v3 and v4  over the last two days. As soon as it gets stable,
I'll lock it into v4.

Sorry, guys, I still have to do "real" work, too, so I can't dedicate
as much time as I'd like and get it perfect as fast as I'd like.

gerry
