Finally the Teamspeak3 beta has been released.

They announced that the website will return once the traffic settles down.

Last night at 3:00AM the clocks were changed back from GMT+1 to GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). So we got Wintertime (Defaultime) again and everyone in this timezone could get an hour more sleep. The clocks changing is always at the last Sunday of October.
This timelaw exists since 25th of Juli 1978.
