They're doing some sort of server-side sniffing, because I can't even view the source of the home page without immediately being redirected to the "Unsupported Browser" message (using a recent Camino 2.1 nightly).

Have you sent feedback as directed via

Thanks Loic, that's (partially) good news.

If you fake your user-agent (to Fx 11+) or use Beta, Aurora or Nightly are you prevented to access the site? Or do you get a warning? Or nothing.

If so, we should continue to try to reach them. If the only problem is the potentially not up-to-date supported browsers we should close this.

(I keep it open meanwhile)

Yes, spoofing the UA from FF10 to FF11+/IE6 or using the latest Nightly prevents me from accessing the login page (and I'm redirected to http://opus.gmea.org/Browsers.html).
