Tage explained it in the News section, but I'll repeat it here. Names have been changed to protect the guilty.

Someone named Jim accidentally did an incomplete reinstall of PHP on our server, which reset something which shouldn't have been reset and caused the database to reject all articles and blurbs that included apostrophes. Jim subsequently found this and fixed it, so it all works now.

Unfortunately not. I'm really sorry about your article, Jeffe. It was really good, and it will be a pain to rewrite it.
