I just wanted to let everyone know the new script has gone into affect
this evening and appears to be working properly.  The server NS1.NZ has
been offline for approximately two weeks, so it fell under the new rules
and was automatically marked as offline.

Currently the rules are as follows...
- If a server stops responding or fails testing for 7 or more days, it
will be marked offline.
- If an offline server is repaired and passes all testing for 48 hours,
it will be marked as normal and re-listed in the zone file and on the
status pages.

We will see how these values work for now, and adjust them if there
appears to be any problems.
