You can update your wallet here too. If you check the menu bar, above it where it says News, click the download. :)

What happened to the site I am not sure, might have something to do with the bitcoin foundation.

Whilst that's true if the bitcoin.org site is down then the link here will be as it is hosted there. I just tried and it wasn't loading.

Yes I already tried the link and the site is down. Anyone know where the github repository for Bitcoin is?
I need access to my Bitcoin so I can trade.

Why don't you just download a light wallet that doesnt download the blockchain instead? You can upload your wallet to blockchain.info and spend the funds immediately as far as I'm aware.

U dont need to access the github repository to access your coins. If u have your private keys, u may import your coins to blockchain.info wallet and start trading.

By the way, I gave u the Github Repo link here => https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=761071.msg8582383#msg8582383

Moreover, Bitcoin.org is now online too.

Website is running and working fine here for me also. Possibly a glitch with the server when you went on earlier? Are you still having the same problems?
