[Mono-list] Nabble forums not working?

I've tried several times to register and login to the forums on
http://www.go-mono.com/forums/ -- Who maintains these?
1) Forum registration pages don't work on Safari (OS X) - some
javascript infinite reload loop
2) Forum registration doesn't work on Firefox (OS X): It infinitely told
me that the captcha was wrong, when it was not. I started over, and it
told me I had already registered. So then I tried to login, and it just
takes me to a list of forums, but I am not logged-in.
There's other major issues too:
- There are no scroll bars on the forum index. So if it displays 35
messages per page, you only see the first 13.5 messages. Doesn't matter
what your screen resolution is. And this happens on Safari and Firefox
both.
- There is a warning on the login page about how Nabble stores passwords
in plaintext.
Are those forums still active and maintained? It doesn't even seem like
Nabble is a production-ready system. Unless for some reason I am the
only one having this problem (on two OS's, on 2 browsers, on 2 different
machines -- seems unlikely): I think those forums should just be shut down.
