AW and Vacuumland Server Down Issues

[unimatic1140]

We are experiencing major downtime today on both automaticwasher.org and Vacuumland. It has been reported that they planned a maintenance upgrade at 2am BUT something went very wrong and outages spilled into the morning. The maintenance was planned. The problems that resulted were not.

There are millions of websites down because of this issue and the internet is alive with livid webmasters!

Hopefully they will get what ever problems they are having fixed, but its been at least 8 hours now so I have no idea how long this might take.

Thanks everyone for your patience.

Our ISP just announced "The resolution towards fixing the data center network issues continues. You'll continue to see sites working and then not working (as well as not work at all depending on your connection and location) until the datacenter has this resolved. We'll keep you updated."
