Since yesterday I started seeing an error message from the Eclipse nntp server whenever I try to get new messages: "load at x%, try later", where x is anything between 25% or 35%.

I guess this is some mechanism recently enabled to refuse new connections if the server load is too high, but the way it is now it is impossible to fetch any messages at any time of the day.

I'd say that's a blocker.

The news/build server has died. We're working on kicking it.
