http://source.squeakfoundation.org seems to be working fine for me at
the moment.  Noone restarted the image, so maybe it was a short term
problem with the domain, or something with your connectivity, or
something else. :)

Bert posted about this at one point... on this list?  He's seen the
problem a few times in the Impara SqueakSource image.  I believe it has
something to do with WeakArrays and/or finalization, but I don't know
the details.  (In fact, I wonder wondering if the finalization fix you
posted on squeak-dev could be related.)

In related news, Ken Causey & I worked today on moving the SqS setup
from Cees' machine over to box2, which is one of the more official sqf
boxes... this way more admins will have access to debug it, restart it,
etc.  An initial copy is running right now at
http://source2.squeakfoundation.org ... we'll try the real switch
sometime later this week.
