Two main servers of debian.org are being relocated to HP while decision
of their new hosts gets finalized. These server are very essential for
DDs to upload new packages as one of them hosts the database. That might
be whey we aren't seeing any updates since a few days.
I read[1] that they should have been up by Monday but it looks that
there are still some delays. Its quite possible that Fedex messed
something up like Debian CDs and the servers might be somewhere in
Europe or Asia ;)
Hopefully, the servers will be up and normal updates may start as soon
as tomorrow.
