slackware.com down?


I cannot get to Slackware's home page (slackware.com)

Is it me/my connection?
Anyone know what the deal is?

Thanks,
David Harbaugh

There seems to be some problem with the site. The connection times out for me.

May be there will be a new release today or tomorrow ... ???

The last two times - quite before a new release was published - the slackware site was down for more than one day.

Only my thoughts ...

People often come up with that theory. The site is probably just down. That kind of stuff happens. It would be Russian roulette to push out a new release after an udev change .

According to my traceroute, there is trouble with his ISP:
Code:
Host                                Loss%   Snt   Last   Avg  Best  Wrst StDev
.......
14. so-7-0-0--0.cr01.phnx.eli.net    98.4%   190  1099. 1736. 1099. 2231. 579.2
Almost all packets get lost before they reach the goodies.
