Etherpads at pad.okfn.org struggling

Looks like all the activity of Open Data Day and heavy usage is bringing the server down (intermittently).

It’s great to see all the excitement, but not so great if people can’t use the service.

I’m getting 502 errors and things like:

The error was reported with the following id: 'TZx32EDl9fAnVLNVB1r2'
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'setChannelState' of null in https://pad.okfn.org/javascripts/lib/ep_etherpad-lite/static/js/pad.js?callback=require.define at line 266'

Anyone else seeing this? Let us know if you need help or if we should try to redirect some sites to other pads.

I have the same problem in London, we are looking into it…
