Is the WebChat Oolite channel down?

https://webchat.oftc.net/?nick=user&channels=oolite gives me the following:

*

Unable to connect

Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at webchat.oftc.net.

The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

Granted, I don't really chat there, but I do check in on a fairly regular basis, just to see if that alternative communications-channel is still available in case of emergency.

Will it become available again anytime soon in the foreseeable future?

Thanks.

It appears to be alive now... Might wanna edit that post to change the URL so nobody else clicks the link to log in as you :)

Also... maybe someone should update the greet.

Thanks, MrFlibble.

Edited, as suggested: the chat should now automatically change the "user" name to some "Guest" name after a second or two.
