Trouble at Mill

With some unfortunate timing, it looks like the "Axis of Openness" webpages (SourceForge, Slashdot, Freshmeat, ...) have gone for a burton. There seems to be some networking problems with these sites, with web traffic timing out. Assuming traceroute output is valid, the problem appears soon after traffic leaves the Santa Clara location of the Savvis network [dead router(s)?]

This is a pain because we've just done the v0.10 release of MonAMI and both the website and the file download locations are hosted by SourceForge. Whilst SourceForge is down, no one can download MonAMI!

If you're keen to try MonAMI, in the mean-time, you can download the RPMs from the (rough and ready) dev. site:
http://monami.scotgrid.ac.uk/

The above site is generously hosted by the ScotGrid project [their blog].

Thanks guys!

Yup, no OSDN network, no slashdot (network unreachable) no sourceforge, it's like a million geeks cried out and were suddenly silenced!
