While at least one genealogy blogger speculated that yesterday's FamilySearch.org down-time was due to reworking something in preparation for public "release" of the FS-Family Tree, actually the cause was a problem with the Amazon.com servers used by FamilySearch.

Is this a problem for all, or should I be checking my system?
