@jayvdb, there was similar thing with connect.opensuse.org. We should add some code that check if website is unable to use. for example, if taken username is available then the website is unable to use.

Very interesting idea.
+1 for this idea and easy to implement too.
travis build: https://travis-ci.org/manu-chroma/username-availability-checker/builds/325793324 this was a build while connect.opensuse.org was down
when any website goes down unexpectedly, we have error handling for that at https://github.com/manu-chroma/username-availability-checker/blob/master/templates/status.html#L46
not working for websites that reponse 200 even website is down
@jayvdb, can you rename the issue?
https://www.openhub.net/accounts/45345345 currently responds with "The Black Duck Open Hub is currently offline"
This actually happens quite a bit, so we should have a way to detect and inform the user that OpenHub cant be checked at the moment.
