Notes on some Sanskrit astrological authors (re-posted)

For some reason, posts from the last week or so seem to have disappeared overnight from several (all?) forums. For anyone interested in the historiography of Indian (particularly Tajika) astrology, here is the link I posted recently to a short article of mine correcting some mistakes in Pingree's work:

Its a general system fault Martin. We have lost entire threads on the mundane forum. Basically, posts over the last week or so have disappeared off the site.

Paul Kiernan has been trying to sort this out and posted this message on the mundane forum:
I tried to create a thread about this and it too disappeared. James created one here:

Looks like the database is being reverted to an older state - threads, replies and PMs are going missing. Looks like it's going to be one of those mercury retrograde periods I'm afraid.

The server maintenance people are looking into it - it's outside the hands of what we can do as moderators here.

Let's try to be patient and copy and paste any important or lengthy posts into a text file just in case.
