Re: [Myexperiment-discuss] myExperiment wiki is down....

[David R Newman]

Hi All,

Southampton has a peering arrangement with Bradford Uni for some reason 
they are not mapping the ecs.soton.ac.uk domain tree.  I believe that our 
systems team is now aware of this and I will ask them for an ETA on it 
being fixed.  In the mean time Don said he will change the domain record 
for myexperiment so it uses IP addresses instead.

Regards

David Newman
