Issues with upstream DNS provider

Heroku - if you're listening. Please do NOT migrate IPs / load balancers here for a little while. You might also do some work to detect those of us who have bypassed your DNS, and give us some nudges individually to move back to your DNS when the time is right.

You just caused a very painful outage for your entire customer base, and a number of us used this hack to get back online. If you don't recognize this, and cause ANOTHER outage (the third in the past few weeks...) we're going to flee even faster to more stable platforms.

Those IPs tend to stay pretty stable and are shared across the fleet. While you should change them back once things are stable, it's reasonably likely these won't change out from under you in a few hrs.
