Ratings missing from the App Store?

A few readers have notified us that app ratings have disappeared entirely from the App Store in iTunes. The ratings still appear on the iOS App Stores and in browser previews of apps, but for the desktop iTunes view of the App Store, they are nowhere to be found.

iTunes Connect was apparently down for a little while last night, but it's been down before and ratings have never vanished from the iTunes App Store. More likely than not, the ratings and reviews will reappear in the iTunes App Store soon; it's just odd that Apple hasn't sent a note out to developers about this.

I'm a developer of an app and I also think some of the lists have been frozen for a while as well--I've been at the same location in the my app's category for the last 36 hours or so, as well as every other app around me as far as I can tell.

wonder what's going on!

I don't see any reviews either (not just ratings, no user text appears within iTunes for me).
