 Replying to [comment:3 ryandesign]:
 > When the internet connection that build.macports.org uses is down, as it
 was today, and on May 31, and on May 30, there is no way for it to provide
 a response.

 Fair enough, and no worries for that case.

 > When I shut the servers down in anticipation of a thunderstorm and
 possible power outage, I leave the internet connection and router on, and
 the router could conceivably act as reverse proxy to provide a message
 when the backend is down. It might also be nice to let the router handle
 TLS and certificates. I did attempt to set that up about a year ago but
 didn't complete it.

 Yep, that's super-simple, and eliminates worries regarding capacity and
 such. So I'd vote for an approach like that, assuming it's not a major
 pain to setup.
