Hi,

I've mailed support at community.haskell.org about this issue over a month ago 
(February 26), and had dons bring it up with the admins more recently 
(March 13).

Core permissions are fine.

Maybe we should just set up an alternate repo somewhere, but then there is 
the question of updating the website and other documentation that includes 
the repo url.
