[ncc-services-wg] Problems with ipv6 router

Dear Colleagues,

With reference to the email from Andrei Robachevsky below the affected
services are now up again. The uptime was 20:00. The outage was caused
by a router hardware failure.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Regards,
Brian Riddle.
