[plug] kettle.plug.org.au down this weekend

[Blake Munro]

Hi Pat

Just wondering if you had any idea when kettle will be back up?

I currently get this:

blake at verve:~$ ping kettle.plug.org.au
PING kettle.plug.org.au (203.82.212.218) 56(84) bytes of data.
>From shameless.plug.org.au (203.82.208.245) icmp_seq=1 Destination Host

>From shameless.plug.org.au (203.82.208.245) icmp_seq=3 Destination Host
