[Evolution] Adult supervision required at gnome.org?

["Regence 21" <regence21 hotmail com>]

Almost every useful link on http://www.gnome.org/projects/evolution/ is now 
broken -
the mailing lists link, the code blog and the Red Carpet links are all 404.

Is anyone actually responsible for updating the Evolution website? It's a 
shame
to see such a great piece of software presented so poorly due to this 
oversight.
