The namecheap website is dead - AFAIK no domain services have been affected. All of mine are fine anyway, and a random selection of some other folk I know on there are fine too.

The ones which were in the process of migration ( old & new ) are affected.

From their status page it appears that there was an unscheduled maintenance and within a hour it was back up but then something went wrong and since then its still down.
