[FYI] minor interruption of service, validator.w3.org

Greetings,

A few hours ago, a routine system administration operation had an 
unexpected result on the server validator.w3.org, causing an 
interruption of service for the W3C's Markup Validator and Link Checker.

The services were promptly switched to a backup server, and things 
should be operational now, though one may experience some unusual 
latency. The services should, however, behave normally.

Everything should be back to normal within one or two days, and we 
thank you for your patience as we get the production server back to 
work.

Regards,
