Github is down (main site, *.github.io opening now)

Not for me! From the looks of the stat page[0], there isn't anything super out of place

Looks like a Major DDOS attack! <naive>Why attack a open source repository?</naive>

Github Pages with custom domains seem to be working fine, while other *.github.io pages seem down.

The submitted URL was down a minute ago. Its working now, while the main page (https://github.com/) is still down

And? Isn't the magic DVCS supposed to make this a non issue?

...what?
