They're not in IRC, www.guildsoftware.com is down, so is waylonart, (all sites they host off their fibre..)

What's going on? anyone know what happened to them?

I bet they are, that'd explain why people are having issues getting their accounts upgraded.

The ethernet card in the webserver is buggy and its driver is apparently missing some workaround.

Also, a Sparc 10 we use for our personal websites and such suffered catastrophic disk failure (again...) where both mirrored disks had too many errors to continue, and then one decided to make lots and lots of noise. This happened before. Fujitsu disks are great.

Aye. Seagate and Maxtors are all I use...

www.guildsoftware.com has nothing whatsoever to do with waylon-art. The company sites are hosted on our relatively serious dedicated company webserver in the colo facility, which is having some ethernet problems (a pretty minor, sporadic issue, just has to have some hardware switched around.. but it did cause some of the financial back-end to get desynched on Sat). Waylon-art, on the other hand, is hosted on my personal little webserver machine in our office, which is a jumble of Sun hardware from 1992 and free donated disks (yes, they sucked, but Free was better than Nothing, especially given my lack of finances. Alas, raid can only do so much). The fact that both went offline at roughly similar times was cooincidental.
