It is impossible now for almost 2 full months to update existing ATOMS 
modules
-- noticeably for Scilab 6 -- or to create and upload new ones.
The red warning message telling something like "/Dear 
visitors/customers, due to the migration, the service is suspended; it 
is no longer possible to login/" was removed this week. But it is still 
impossible to login.
This message was quite clear about the fact that ATOMS does not really 
address users that are neither just tourists visitors nor customers aka 
creditworthy users.

It is quite easy to understand that maintaining a system that 
distributes some freely available resources is not a priority  for ESI 
and its business model.
This is why, IMO, the Scilab community should seriously consider 
relieving ESI from this pain
and set an external public server managed out of it. In the way, 
improvements about such an ATOMS
and FileExchange clone could be done in an open way.

Best regards
Samuel
