[outages] AIM partial problems?

[Jay R. Ashworth]

I've been seeing, for a day or three, problems where *some* pairs of users 
cannot get AIM to admit to one another that they exist.

Frex:

I can talk to S, S can talk to J, but when J and I add one another to our 
buddy lists, we each see the other user as off-line, and cannot message them.

Client is Pidgin 2.5.1 on Windows, and some other version, possibly, on Linux.

Just now, I've had J send me a message, but she *still* doesn't show up in my
buddy list where I added her.  Spelling doublechecked, etc.

Anyone know of any internal problems with AIM this week?

Cheers,
