Yesterday, 13 September, we reported an incident with our website: www.crossref.org. It was down from 11:13 to 12:23 UTC. We resolved that incident prematurely. The outage was caused by a know intermittent issue that our technical team is working to resolve, but does not yet have fixed. We're monitoring the issue, and anticipate doing so for the foreseeable future. Thus, we have re-opened a new incident here. We'll provide updates as we have them. -IF
