Blogger and FTP problems

I’ve been unable to post to the blog for the past few days as Blogger has been having issues with sFTP. Whenever I tried to publish a post, I was getting this error:

java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out

Apparently I wasn’t alone as I found quite a few posts on the Blogger support forums about the problem, like this one. It was only affecting people who host their blogs on their own servers, but that’s still a good number of people. I was really getting frustrated but am glad they finally resolved the issue.

I’ve got a few backlogged posts to get to now …
