Anybody recent experience with registering a Spot GPS tracker with glideport.aero (SSA tracker) ?

I had a Spot Tracker running on glideport.aero in the past with no problem.
I re-instated my Spot account this season (with a flex plan)

In the past the Shared Spot Map page had a format like
http://share.findmespot.com/shared/faces/viewspots.jsp?glId=07zYU7HyYkxtdJ7B8nExxxxxxxxxxx
And this link worked fine on glideport.aero in the past but not anymore.

When I access the Spot Shared Views now, the link has a format that looks like
https://maps.findmespot.com/s/Kxxx
And when I enter this link on the Glideport.aero Tracking Devices page (http://glideport.aero/setspot)
I get an error message (bad URL) and my Spot won't show.

The Spot works fine. I can view my tracks. I get the notifications of the OK message, etc.

Anybody experiencing anything similar ?
Any ideas how to resolve ?

Trying to get that resolved but not making great progress with modifying the links in glideport.aero to the new data location.

Thanks for the quick response Frank
While researching this on RAS, I read the endless threads of complainers about glideport.aero.
I know how difficult it is to get things done by volunteers, with the many hands-in-the pocket onlookers.

My IGCDroid tracker is still working on glideport.aero, so I an OK and can wait for this Spot situation to resolve.
If there is something I can do, let me know.

Frank,
Do you need help with Glideport or do you have it covered?

IGCDroid is less useful without it.
