Would anyone be so kind to confirm or deny whether the shared coin service is currently operational?

All I get, when trying to access it with the "shared coin" feature of my wallet is "fetching sharedcoin info" in the upper right corner briefly with the repetitions menu just offering "loading" as its only option forever with "review payment" being greyed out.

api.sharedcoin.com is giving me 502, which is shown in the Java console, too. So I assume the service is most likely just down?

If so, anyone knows since when and when/if it will be back?

Any recommendations for trusted mixing services (doesn't have to be CoinJoin, I actually preferred blockchain's older "shared send" approach)?
