Was one of the few that returned a message, usually it just timed out.

That persisted for at least an hour, and then Slimserver backed down on
trying to submit. It was up again at 2:15pm, and then dropped offline
again around 3:45pacific, but that was a much shorter outage.  (ie,
there were more timeouts after noon, but by 2pm or so it was able to
submit fine.)

Make sure you check your logs when trying to diagnose if the plugin
works... every problem I've had has been due to flaky submission
servers at last.fm.  (Fortunately, the plugin does the plugin does the
right thing and saves submissions.)
