[outages] FACEBOOK - recovery begins after 6 hours

[Jay R. Ashworth]

You(r users) may continue to see timeouts and errors for another
hour or two, into Monday evening EDT, but at least the DNS (and hence,
presumably the BGP) problems appear to be fixed or in-work.

As usual for an outage of this magnitude (one that makes the general press),
the list won't need individual "it's back" messages -- unless you happen
to get good links to After Action Reports from the Facehouse, or press pieces
that have more details on the root cause (beyond "they pooched a configuration
push and stranded their AS out of BGP").

Thank you for flying Air Outages.

Cheers,
