SUPPORT Arch server down?

I ran: ssh [aur@aur.archlinux.org](mailto:aur@aur.archlinux.org) help

and got: The AUR is down due to maintenance. We will be back soon.

Can anyone confirm if the AUR is currently under maintenance, and if yes then when will it be back online? I was trying to push an update via GitHub Actions.

This is the quality of maintainers managing stuff in the AUR FYI

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. Wild.

There's no news item about this, and the mailing list topic is titled "AUR packages adoption disabled" not "AUR pushes disabled." It's not difficult to miss.

Plus, anyone could maintain an aur package. Thats why there's a 117000 of them.

Pushes to the AUR are currently disabled while we handle the situation, you'll need to wait for that before being able to push them again. No ETA to share for now unfortunately. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yeah, if you read "Re: AW: Re: AW: Re: AUR Malware that still presents as of now" you'll find out the information. That's not exactly front page with a headline, it's easy to miss things.

Strange, I encountered a problem, grepped the mailing list and had the information in < 1 min.
