Are the servers down?

This morning I got the "1 minute maintenance" message for about half an hour before it became

The requested URL could not be retrieved

Is there a problem, and how long is it likely to last?

Getting the same error message here too on all pages ("The requested URL could not be retrieved") at 08.30 UTC Thursday.

Same still down, also getting funny load times for the message... been getting this constantly on and off all week. Is the site getting DDOS'd by someone by any chance?

Any chance we can get an official statement on what is going on?

Now getting this message on every URL:

ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved

The following error was encountered while trying to retrieve the URL: http://localhost/

Unable to forward this request at this time.

This request could not be forwarded to the origin server or to any parent caches. The most likely cause for this error is that the cache administrator does not allow this cache to make direct connections to origin servers, and all configured parent caches are currently unreachable.

Your cache administrator is webmaster.

Everything seems to be back up now (1630 UTC), after a downtime of approximately 10 hrs. Phew :)

One of the servers crashed, so that had to be fixed. Everything should be back to normal now.
