Next time you'll have such a long downtime, contact us before and we'll be glad to fetch winhq's (static) pages and host them for a day.....
The trick would be, to reduce TTL of the DNS, so a switch can occur within minutes....and then point back to the original / or new IP's....

I will be taking the website offline tomorrow starting at 09:00 CDT (04:00 GMT). I will be moving it to a new ISP. Expect downtime to last for up to 8 hours as I will also be doing a complete reinstall of the OS.
This will also affect the mailing lists and the CVS.
Luckly we've got a CVS mirror, for those who didn't know, you can use the european mirror following these instructions http://66.102.9.104/search?q=cache:DK5XI0Uyp_MJ:www.winehq.com/site/cvs+&...
if you need CVS during the downtime. And google will kindly mirror the web pages too :-)
