The virtual server that is running code.dlang.org has frozen about an hour ago and fails to boot further than to the bootloader. Initial attempts to recover from within Grub have failed and it's unclear what the root cause is. I will instead set up a replacement server with the latest backup from 20 hours ago as soon as it becomes available.

It's really about time to install a permanent backup server to keep the registry available in such cases. I will try my best to allocate time to make this happen, but I'm severely constrained currently and any helping hand would make a big difference. What needs to be implemented is a mode for the DUB registry [1] that works without the userman database and instead just polls code.dlang.org for changes (may also require some new REST API end points to be able to acquire all needed data).
