Lilynet.net is not an official part of the lilypond infrastructure - it was set up by Valentin - check whois.  Lilypond.org is the official presence and is maintained by the project.

BTW - what lead me to lilypond.org was a desire to give a contribution to its development. The text for the new item for 2012 meeting mentions contributions for David's work. It was clicking on the link that showed lilynet.net was broken.

If he is not amendable to contact via email or this list it seems unlikely he's amendable to contact via Twitter DM. The situation bodes ill for long-term website viability. I know the organization is cash-strapped, but perhaps shifting to a more supported/supportable web site venue seems wise. Are the "owners" of lilypond.org and lilynet.net still involved in the project? There are a plethora of hosting sites that offer CMS capabilities and unlimited storage for <$200/year (hostforweb.com is one such company with whom I manage a website for a local choral organization). I know the lilypond content is both extensive and complicated, but having an incommunicative site editor seems, to put it mildly, problematic.

It's not the links that are bad.  It's the web site.  It has become
difficult to reach Valentin, the website maintainer, and he has not been
active on the mailing lists for a long time, either.

he is very active on twitter:

has anyone with a twitter account tried to contact him?
