Hi, it's back online now in the last 20 minutes.

Graphs seem to suggest network outage between 5.10am and 9.20am GMT. I'll raise a ticket to see what happened, other than that the server/services intact. 107 days, 9 hours, 50 minutes uptime. :-)

I've been told that the provider was hit by a large DoS attack in their London DC this morning.  At this time I've been told that it has been fully mitigated, and network connectivity has returned to normal.

Thanks :)

If it's not too hard, it would be nice to have some download mirrors, as I understand the website has been down before. Although the web pages were still available in Google's cache, the downloads weren't. I can set up a mirror on my server if you like.

You might also look into using CloudFlare (it has a free plan), it will cache and display the last seen version automatically if the website is down.
