I haven't been able to get onto cython.org for the last couple of days - I expected to see a flood of discussion here so I'm wondering if it's just me?

I can't hit any http URLs, and I can't ping it either from this machine or a server located elsewhere:

$ ping cython.org
PING cython.org (128.208.160.132): 56 data bytes
Request timeout for icmp_seq 0

etc.

I noticed cython.org was down yesterday, and is down now.

If I'm not mistaken, cython.org is hosted on hardware at University of Washington. A server room there seems to have lost cooling, so the computers had to be shut down to prevent damage. From what I understand, cooling should be repaired at some point and hopefully the relevant machines can be powered up and with some luck, have no permanent damage. I have no first-hand information. I'm just reporting from this:

That's correct--we're in the middle of a bit of a heat wave here.
Trac, docs, and the cython.org site are down. We're working on it
(both short an long-term solutions).

Ouch.  Good luck!   

And thanks for this amazing project, which has been extremely effective for me, at least...

cython.org is still down apparently, even though the rest of the UW infrastructure is back up. Something else must be going on...

Volker,

I think the site is up but I transferred the domain name to Robert Bradshaw,
and maybe he didn't set it up properly on his end yet. Robert I sent
you some notifications about this -- please check.

I just set it up to point to the old landing page for now, but don't
have docs, etc yet. William, what is the IP address of the UW server?
(I thought it was at 128.208.178.220 but that seems to be down.)
