The domain is currently listed as unexpired in whois, so it was probably
disabled for non-payment and then re-enabled shortly thereafter --
unfortunately, it seems to have been disabled during a root server
update, which means it's pretty much guaranteed to be down for 24 hours
until the next root server pulse.  I doubt you'll be able to get anyone
on the phone who can fix it faster, but it doesn't hurt to call and let
'em know it's broken just in case there /is/ a deeper problem.
