Here is an email response from a moderator

----------------
The volunteer moderators aren't able to update any of the web pages, but
I've asked the project team to post a news item and temporarily change
the server status link on the home page to that item.

In case you aren't aware, the project has been paused until major
problems with the core VM have been resolved.

Have problems uploading finished WUs for weeks now, hope that what is getting fixed...

Although the most recent news regarding CPDN is more than a week old, a good place to go for general news on project outages is this thread at the Berkeley BOINC site: News on Project Outages. CPDN must not be completely down because I've been able to upload trickles throughout this recent outage.
