Hi, folks.
Many of you are still using etherpad.wikimedia.org -- which is old and terribly buggy. Some of you have switched to etherpad.wmflabs.org -- which is new and works well, but which had repeatedly choked in the past couple of days under the stress from dozens of Wikipedians taking notes simultaneously on several sheets.
The best server to use is http://epl.wikimedia.org -- also running the new version, but deployed on a production-grade server that shouldn't have those frequent disconnections and load problems.
