Dreamhost rebuilt the server and restored the site ... partly. It took me quite a few hours to get everything fixed but the Checker Maven site should now be fully functional. Please inform me if you run into any problems.
A look at the logs showed that an amazing number of people tried to access the site while it was down. I knew I had a following but I never knew it was that good!
I did notice that the site is being periodically attacked by hackers in Russia. There was quite a bit of that in the last few days. Fortunately they are unsuccessful so far.
