It is not a budget cut.

If the US government does not come up with a budget by a deadline
(currently Friday?) then everything non-essential shuts down until a
new budget is passed.

This means this list will temporarily be down as the people running it
will not be working until the new budget.

Once a new budget gets passed the list would return.
