The second host, Deon, has not actually taken it down.  There are still a
few systems getting a feed from him, including me, but the traffic is no
where near where it used to be.  I think Deon is using it as a testbed for
something, so it is still up.

Unless you are just aching to get it reconnected, I would treat it as dying
and maybe not worth it.
