opensrs.net problems?

What's with whois lookups against opensrs.net today?

Yeah, I'm a whois junkie (who isn't?). I've tried to find some information about domains listed on opensrs.net a few times today and come up with squat (timeouts or connection refused from multiple hosts). I even went so far as to use the tucows web service for whois, complete with a captcha type verification system. It failed too.

I'd have sent personal email to Ross, but I couldn't find an email address (yes, that's something I'm going to have to address here; I can find one, but I know where to look).
