We are aware that it is down. This is a side-effect of the power shutdown at MIT yesterday. After power was restored, the OpenStack (virtual machine management system) had problems restarting. Apparently, so many virtual machines attempted to start at once (technical term: "The Thundering Heard!") that the whole system was faltering. Classifier is one of the stuck virtual machines.

Hopefully things will get unstuck sometime today. If not, I'll bring up classifier in Amazon Web Services (AWS). This costs us $ which is why I'm not rushing off to do it.
