I noticed that all email validations going to Hotmail addresses were bouncing. This was due to our previous email provider. I switched to a new provider and Hotmail should be working now. Please check your spam folder and be sure to mark as "not spam" if you find it there. That will help Antilles out a lot!
If you try to re-validate your email through Hotmail and it doesn't work, please let me know through the feedback mechanism.
Announcement Update
I was originally planning to announce Antilles publicly this week, but I decided it was more important to resolve the Hotmail issue and a couple of others before opening to the world. Hopefully next week!
