They've issued a statement explaining the outage http://www.godaddy.com/newscenter/release-view.aspx?news_item_id=410

Seemingly nothing to do with hackers or DDOS ..

But to emphasise, you're making Joe's point: we don't have any of
that, just a lot of blather about where someone is and whether they
