Hi -
    Linerva is currently being reinstalled. We're using the ssh remote
installer, but it will not generally accept user logins.

Linerva should be back up within the next hour or so.

In the future, announcements to outages are sent to
<linerva-announce@mit.edu>. You can add yourself through the web
interface at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/linerva-announce

- Evan
for the Linerva maintainers
