And we’re up!
Jennifer SchopfThanks to amazing efforts by many of the biodiversity informatics group staff (especially Pam who’s basically not slept since we went live very early Tuesday morning), we’re back up and running again. We’ve been stable since yesterday afternoon, but we’re still dealing with many more hits than we ever expected – we’re now listed on over 400 press websites in 10 different languages! So please bear with us if things are a bit slow or we need to take the site down to try to make additional upgrades to improve the performance. We’re currently working on ways to address this going forward so everyone can experience the Encyclopedia of Life. Thanks for your patience!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I think your encyclopedia is going to change the world. I think many of us have dreamt for a long time for a website just like this, but you are the first to be able to organise such a world-scale project. Congratulations and best of luck!
