The site is clearly working, but I've been unable to post there as a new user because, though I've registered and verified my email through the link they sent, no one has approved my membership for several days now, which is the last step.

I keep checking but no-go. I can log-in to the site. But I can't post an introduction.

I looked for some moderator or administrator contact method on the site but so far couldn't find one.

Sorry if this is possibly off topic, but I did wonder if there was something (like bot floods?) now preventing registration approvals there.

Terrible what's going on these days with scrapers and bots. I'm on another forum that has instituted a honeypot for bots. It automatically bans IPs that hit the honeypots (they're hidden from regular users). Recently there were 25,000 hits in one day.

Also...just a follow up... I was approved on EAB today, so now I can post. Thanks for the explanation.
