My Dreamhost hosted domain is down and their status blog appears to be as well. Anyone else having issues?

an update from their boards:
"Sorry about the downtime experienced today. We have network and DNS issues today. If you are writing in because your site is down please hold off if you can. We are currently running an update that will fix all of your domains, but unfortunately the update takes a while to run. If by tomorrow your site is not up please write directly to rather than posting to normal support. We have a specialized support team ready to assist you.

i love dreamhost.
their email was down (for the first time since i've had them) about 3 days ago.
i emailed and 10 minutes later i had a response, from an actual person that they were working on it.
with my other two hosts i've had over the years, responses came days, if not weeks later.
case in point. i was having issues with a host 2 months ago, i emailed them about it and nothing for weeks, so i said fuck them and transfered everything to my main dreamhost account. last week i get a response back to my email.
"looks like your site isn't even hosted with us. are you sure you emailed the right people?"
wtf.

^ yup.
dreamhost is great. sure you might have better up-time from somewhere else, but not for the price.
but specifically, i am not seeing any issues on any URLs currently...

Yeah I'm experiencing problems. No email on one account, webmail is not working at all, and some domains are down as well.
Its really helpfull that their status blog is down too :D

Yeah, they have been great as far as responsiveness and tech support is concerned. Just a bummer my domain is down. Fortunately I wasn't one of those domains a couple months back that was compromised. Other than those two issues, I don't see any problems with them at all.

hmm. all my domains are up.
i haven't checked webmail yet. maybe this is an isolated case and you're one of the unfortunate few affected?
or, you're going through what i just went through 3 days ago.
weird.

I think it involves a number of their nameservers, but there were a fairly significant number of complaints.

I could see why people who have clients with high-traffic hosted there would mind, but mine are all personal sites so I don't care much.
