[outages] sun.com name servers unreachable?

[Scott Howard]

Oracle did disable the sun.com domain (although not at the DNS server
level) close to a year ago.  It lasted a few hours before they discovered a
large number of other websites stopped working as a result, including parts
of java.com.

I doubt they would have made the same mistake twice, which leads me to
guess this is probably an outage rather than a deliberate shutdown.

  Scott.
