Well..  I seem to get a bit further than some.  I get DNS, but then I get
host not responding.  Here's what a simple host call says (I use OpenNIC
alternative naming system servers as my primary DNS, which might be why I
get that far..): 
 
bugs.freestandards.org is an alias for base3.freestandards.org.
base3.freestandards.org has address 207.235.77.149

The rDNS entry checks out from here as well

MTR traces to it OK, altho it shows 10% packet loss (1 out of 10 packets
sent lost) on the last hop (base3 as above).

TraceTCP (TCPTraceroute) gets there too, but shows port 80 on the target
machine is closed, so it appears the machine is up, but the web server is
down.
