Github is back in China

I still can't access github in Beijing.

Blocks and restorations don't propagate immediately -- if the block is really gone, you should get it back as soon as the name resolver cache expires.

Thousands of programmers on Weibo submitted their plea to miit.gov.cn website for relieving github. Guess it worked.

I call this new kind of ShangFang, it won't be long till this channel gets flooded.

I live in Beijing, GitHub is still unavailable.

Try flushing your dns first.

I might have been to quick to rejoice. Github acces seams to be going on and off.

If you go on http://viewdns.info/chinesefirewall/?domain=github.com and refresh page few times, you will get different status in different places.
