The colocation facility hosting WormBase suffered a catastrophic failure of a critical component today around 8AM ET. System administrators worked throughout the day to restore service. We are happy to report that all services are back online and apologize for any inconvenience.
New release of WormBase: WS218

Possible service interruptions, 31 August 2010
We’re relocating some services to a new hosting facility beginning at 10AM ET (GMT -5), Tuesday August 31, 2010. We plan to maintain systems at the old facility during this transition, but because these upgrades require modifications to the global domain name system records, you may encounter intermittent service interruptions or “server not found” errors. We apologize in advance for any difficulties.
Typically updates such as this propagate throughout the DNS system within hours but may take up to 48 hours to fully resolve.
New release of WormBase: WS217
WormBase has been updated to the WS217 release of the database. Release notes are available on the WormBase Wiki.
