We've moved to a new group which is pretty much identical.
Why did we move? This one has a typo in the name and that can't be changed according to Valve and there isn't anywhere in the options to change it.

I know you might say that it's just a typo, but it doesn't really look good for the "official" group to have a typo in the name.

Here is a link to the new group

Notch has added a link to the group on the community page.

The Forums are back up, but things are still being played with and adjusted currently. They may be taken back down.

Sadly, the forums are down still, they took them down to keep the wiki up.
