IP routing issues / IP Blocked?

@theogibb has reported what looks to be either an upstream routing issue between Singlehop & Zayo, an IP blockBlock Block is the abstract term used to describe units of markup that, composed together, form the content or layout of a webpage using the WordPress editor. The idea combines concepts of what in the past may have achieved with shortcodes, custom HTML, and embed discovery into a single consistent API and user experience. in the upstream provider, or a routing issue in a UK ISP.

Could someone from systems take a look? Unsure if this affects an individual or a wider network. The IP included is a DSL IP, so probably rather low priority unless this affects a wider range of users.

If you’re gonna enable it for ps, might as well add it for ts too.

CORS headers are indeed needed for those resources for JavascriptJavaScript JavaScript or JS is an object-oriented computer programming language commonly used to create interactive effects within web browsers.

Schema redirect for wp-env.json

@ajlende requested via Slack: https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C02QB8GMM/p1718649686552709

I need to add a new schemas.wp.org redirect for the wp-env.json file added in https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/36276. I don’t have access to add the systems request like was done for Add redirect for Font Collection JSON schema. So I hope this is the right place to ask for help; I couldn’t find a channel for systems.

I’m making an assumption here; but it appears the expected format is:

https://schemas.wp.org/trunk/wp-env.json => https://raw.githubusercontent.com/WordPress/gutenberg/trunk/schemas/json/wp-env.json
