I just tried to register a new version of SIAMFANLEquations.jl and the registration failed with this message

```julia
 JuliaRegistrator had a problem deploying to stopwatch 14 minutes ago

```

I have no idea how to respond to this. What should I do?

GitHub Actions was unfortunately down / having issues for a long time today: [GitHub Status - Incident with GitHub Actions](https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/m16jzl31gnqt?utm_ts=1621327552). So I think that’s what happened there. Now it’s up but there’s kind of a backlog as everything runs (all the yellow in [Actions · JuliaRegistries/General · GitHub](https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General/actions)).

So hopefully in a few hours things will be back to normal. If your PR is still not merged tomorrow then it could help to comment on it in case someone needs to close it and re-open it or something like that. But I think @giordano has been keeping an eye on things so probably you don’t need to do anything.

That makes sense. Thanks!  
Seems the stopwatch cancelled everything in the PR, but I’ll wait until tomorrow before I try again.
