About last night’s outage
They are going to happen from time to time. Can't be helped. We do the best we can, but ultimately we are all just volunteers for this project.

There is a live backup, however. I will post the link below. But there are a few rules.

Because of the differences in the underlying BAPP stack (FreeBSD, Apache, Postgresql, PHP) the backup server is read only. If you try to post a comment, it will fail.

You can access the backup between 30 minutes after and at the top of the hour. Otherwise, you'll lag out because of the nature of this particular server.

In time I hope to get the backup server where you can post comments, but alas they will erase at the next update.
The server was happily working here. The router was just as content. Comcast, on the other hand, was busted. Sorry.
