i'm guessing your dns-master was on the same host as the site?

Yes, I also have a DNS primary, with commercial secondaries to back it
up.  The trick is to get Wayne to point the NS record there.
The master dns is actually up.  But none of us have a login on it.

The problem is, Wayne owns the domain, and is absent when it needs
maintenance.  And he shouldn't give the keys to just anyone.  There
needs to be a formal procedure for delegating control of the
openspf.org domain.

FWIW, openspf.org is back up.

I pulled a current backup today.

Thanks to all who've offered hosting, but *hosting* is a non-issue.
I have long been intending to move the new website back to my own reliable 
server where it had started out[1].  The one thing that made any attempts 
at moving the site futile always was that Wayne controlled the domain and 
couldn't effectively be reached.  Unfortunately this hasn't changed. :-(
