Managed to make three connections.
Can't make any more.
Has it fallen over again?

On 7th April we were told 'a few hours' for the fix.
It's now 10th April. Can we have a realistic ETA please? 
09/04/2010 07:50:57 marc told us that possibly "some more hardware needs to be replaced and the server needs to be setup from scratch. This will take around 2 days."

Be patient. Complaining doesn't help anything. I guess Marc and the team is working hard on getting the service up and running again.

Maybe donate for the hardware in the meanwhile

A recent project of mine also relies on this service...

The free services are up again. The server had to be reinstalled completely and all disks were replaced.

Best

Great that the service is back again. Great work!
Are the modifications_2010-04-xx.txt files available for the past down period?
