http://code.google.com/status/appengine is reporting a server error.  Looks 
like this "lesson learned" from the 7/2/09 outage wasn't learned after all…

> Communication --- One area where it's clear we could have done better 
> was communication with our customers during the outage. We have a well- 
> defined process for keeping our customers informed, but the process 
> assumes that updates can be posted to the System Status site. There 
> are a number of concrete steps we will take to prevent this from 
> happening again. First, we will devise a backup plan for communicating 
> with customers when the System Status site is unavailable. Second, we 
> will update our failover script to verify that the System Status site 
> and App Engine are running in different data centers. We will also 
> update our failover script to move the System Status site to a 
> different data center when this is not the case. Third, we will add an 
> automated alert to our monitoring system that will notify the App 
> Engine engineer who is on-call whenever the System Status site and App 
> Engine are running in the same data center.
