Only hours after launching their Black Friday campaign last week, the Blender Market servers ran into trouble and crashed for about 5 hours. Jonathan Williamson wrote a great 'post mortem' of the root cause of the problem and how they handled it - I really love this kind of transparancy. To compensate and help their sellers, the campaign has been extended by one day to end today (Tuesday).

I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.
