Just spoken to Johnathon (one of the owners) and he had this to say:
10:10 < Maulkin> They want to know if HEX's power issues are sorted yet.
10:10 < Maulkin> Any idea?
10:11 <@Noodles> No, not really. :( I know the last outage was because
they were doing some of the work to get it sorted.
10:11 < Maulkin> Or is it a case of "They say so, but they said that
last time too" :)
10:11 <@Noodles> And the last time I was there they were running lots of
new beefy cables it seemed.
10:11 <@Noodles> So work is definitely happening.

ie: It's getting better.
To be honest though, last time HEX through a hissy fit, the actual boxes
with BCN didn't go down, it was mroe LYNX that had issues IIRC.

Regards,
Neil
