Our DNS provider is having some trouble right now. They're under DDOS attack and tweeting about it right now. What that means for MetaFilter is that some of our sites may become unreachable for a time. Right now our static server seems hardest hit, so there could be issues loading stylesheets, images, and scripts for the sites.
We're looking at DNS hosting alternatives, and hoping easyDNS can work through these problems quickly.
The server move went well last night (thanks to full backups transfered earlier in the day and differential backups of just that day's activity), and DNS changes were made before midnight. The new server feels screaming fast, but the real test will be in a couple days as weekday traffic peaks begin to hit it, but so far this has been the smoothest server move to date.
