Yesterday (2008-07-28), there was an outage with the Chandler Project
wiki. People saw a "your IP has been blacklisted" message and access
to pages was denied. What happened technically is that the wiki
blacklisted *itself*, so pages which used our shortcuts (/wikihome, /
faq, /etc) were denied. Normal pages were not affected.
The cause of the problem is unknown, but most likely was a high-ish
level of traffic, triggering this throttling behavior that we've
probably been subject to since at least Preview.
The wiki machine's IP address has been added to whitelist so this
won't happen again, and I've made a note to change it when the wiki
machine changes IP addresses.
9 non-OSAF people reported the problem as requested to the wikimaster
alias. I've written them individually with thanks, apology, and
requests to try again.
