 * Yes, your famous: I get errors while visiting wordpress.org Refreshing most of
   the time solves it. Just to let you know…
    more specific: Error establishing 
   a database connection! or at devblog the more poetic one: Error establishing 
   a database connection! This probably means that the connection information in
   your wp-config.php file is incorrect. Double check it and try again.
    - * Are you sure you have the correct user/password?
    - * Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
    - * Are you sure that the database server is running?
 * WordPress Support Forums (as a working link)
    + while trying to post this: Database/
   configuration error. salut

 * Let us all donate $10 each so wordpress.org can be mirrored and run off of a 
   standalone server 🙂

 * It’s happening to me too (I was worried it was just me and my tampering with 
   my modem). In fact, it’s nigh-on impossible to post a message – I’ve had to make
   six attempts just to make this post.
    Bound to happen sooner or later, I suppose.
   Strange that it never happened when wordpress.org got slashdotted…

 * Wiki was telling me too many users were connected to the database…
    If that helps
   more than the generic errors.
