[DLC] website outage

I believe at the last Linux fest a new box was built to host the website,
running an ubuntu-server LAMP with Drupal.  After the linux fest most
everyone got rather busy, and not as much forward motion has been made with
actually converting our Geeklog site and data into the new Drupal site.
Last I heard it was close but there's still some work to be done.

In the meantime, can anyone else confirm that the site was down?  I agree
it's entirely possible this could be an imminent hardware problem showing
itself, but it's equally possible there was simply a bad connection
temporarily which made the site appear to be down.
