No, the site is (or was) not down at all today.  It does get slow due to the
large amount of retransmissions that are going on.   BTW, the list has been
'down' for some people for longer then the .org site has ever been down...I
won't get into particulars, but it was something that I could have 
fixed in a few
seconds, but ended up taking like 9 or 10 days.

Remember, this isn't brain surgery, and it's all volunteer. :)

The point really is that when there are problems, the person that is 
'responsible'
for the list / site can actually fix them rather then just wishing it 
would get fixed
and being totally powerless to do anything about it.
