While I was away, the SLCapEx site was down - I instant messaged Bogart Beck on it prior to the site coming back up (It is back up). I'd heard of an attempt to crack the site - less technical readers would inaccurately write 'hack' - and Bogart didn't say anything about that. What he did say was that they were plugging some holes to avoid future problems.

The World Stock Exchange (WSE) is still down after the perpetual month of upgrades that has lasted 3 months and 5 days so far. All of LukeConnell Vandeverre's live announcements have not breathed enough hot air into the site to get it up and running again.

Ancapex.net? No clue. Ancapex.com is still up and running, but as we all should know by now - that site has a new owner.

International Stock Exchange seems up and running.

VSTEX has continued making their rules for listing more robust - a work in progress that has occupied their time while I was away, from what I understand. There have been 5 updates to Terms of Service and other aspects of VSTEX since April 1st, 2008. Their rules are quickly becoming something I would consider to be worthwhile for future stock exchanges - VSTEX does seem to be leading the charge toward more responsible virtual stock exchanges. And I must note that the Italian site is quickly getting more English verbage than the English counterparts!

So, this is where I'm picking back up on things.
