We had to react to an emergency database issue this afternoon which took down the website for a couple hours. There were no interruptions to media downloading, stats processing, and no data was compromised or lost. Logins to libsyn.com were unavailable, and access to blog pages and RSS feeds was intermittent.

All systems have been restored and are now fully operational.

On Tuesday, May 13th between 3:00pm - 4:00pm EST web and FTP login will be disabled while we perform database maintenance.   During this period, media downloads, RSS feeds, blog pages, and statistics tracking will not be affected.  Logging in, uploading, and add comments to blog posts will disabled during this period of time.

We are investigating FTP upload issues reported this morning. Will update when there is more information

update: we are monitoring the FTP servers closely as they have been acting a little finicky all day. All is up and operational as of 8:30pm EST. FYI, web uploading has been fine throughout this and for most cases should be a suitable workaround for most cases if you should have trouble getting in through FTP.
