There was a brief outage due to that page, Nathan, a few days ago.
(Because of Brandon Harris's AMA on Reddit.)
The intent is to get the page back up, but I don't know when. I'd
guess it might take a week or so, but that's just a guess.
Thanks,
Sue

Thanks for the reply, Erik. To clarify my figures, I included
Wikimania travel in the travel number, and staff development in the
staffing costs. In any case, my argument wasn't that Wikimedia was
misspending its funds. I don't think that's true. I'm sure there are
perfectly reasonable explanations
