I logged into my writely account to find a message, <i>Writely will be down for scheduled maintenance on Sunday, June 25. You will have view-only access to your documents during this time.<i>

This seems like to much of a coincidence that the server going to for maitanence the day before "gbuy" is suppose to launch.

But what I wonder, did they re-coded it to JSP or do they keep the ASP code?

I posted this before I had a chance to talk to garett. I checked the http headers and it does appear that they did move writely onto a google server. Anyhow, this still could mean they're going to open it up soon <i>We have closed off new registrations until we move Writely <b>to Google's systems.</b></i> As for the code, the site being served of aspx, so for now I guess there sticking to asp but I don't see that being the final answer.
