[DCRM-L] ESTC access?

[JOHN LANCASTER]

I’ve just been in touch with the British Library ESTC people - they are not experiencing any problems.

But whatever it is, it seems to be affecting many of us in the US, and they’ve also put in an urgent message to the CERL help desk.

But it’s after 5 in Göttingen, where the servers are, so I’m not expecting anything until tomorrow.
