[3dem] EBI and PDBe services temporarily unavailable

[Gerard DVD Kleywegt]

Due to an as yet unspecified "explosion in a network duct in London", the EBI 
in Hinxton (where all PDBe services, including deposition, are hosted) is 
currently cut-off from its London data centres (through which all EBI web and 
ftp traffic is routed). At present, it looks like normal PDBe service will not 
be resumed for at least 12 hours. We apologise for the inconvenience.

NOTES FOR DEPOSITORS:

If you were in the middle of a deposition with AutoDep or EmDep, all data you 
entered and uploaded up until the last time you pressed "Save" (and the page 
was refreshed in your browser) will have been saved on our disks. So there is 
no need to panic - simply continue the deposition session once we are back 
on-line.

If you have any concerns or questions, please contact our help desk and we will 
try and help you as best we can:

For questions about PDB structure deposition, processing, and updates, please 
contact pdbdep at ebi.ac.uk or call +44 (0)1223 494 550.

For questions about EMDB map deposition, processing, and updates, please 
contact emdep at ebi.ac.uk or call +44 (0)1223 494 550.

(Note: phone number only until 5 pm GMT today, Friday.)
