It's not quite "server is down".

It's more "server is up and down, mostly down".

I was able to fetch 90% of an app earlier today, then it got stuck and wasn't able to fetch the last 35k despite many tries over an hour. Ie. it was up and went down.

Just now, I see repository.maemo.org is mostly not resolving (NXDOMAIN) but occasionally does. http isn't up anyway so it makes little difference.
