Notifications and some issues due to AWS outage

[mark]

Hi all --

Due to the major AWS outage today, some of our systems are impacted -- particularly around notifications and emails. We will work to make sure that service is restored as soon as we can.

Unfortunately, due to the nature of the outage, it may be that notifications were lost along the way. We don't really have a way to go back and re-identify notifications that should have been sent and weren't, so the best bet is to check back on any conversations you were in or your recent posts to see if you missed anything.

Once service is fully restored (which should be soon), though, notifications should be back to their usual selves.

Edit: We are starting to see things moving again! Notifications are being generated and it looks like we may not have lost anything and they're just going to be quite tardy. Knock on wood.
