Servers are up, but ...

On the European Realm status forum there is a message saying: "Most realms are now live and available to the public. We are aware of the problems connecting to the realms, this is mainly due to the large amount of players attempting to log in."

In practice that means that I'm stuck at the authenticating screen since half an hour. What does it help if the realm servers are all up and running if the login server can't handle a "large amount of players attempting to log in"? It is not that "attempting to log in" is something illegal or unexpected. Especially not after a 12-hour maintenance.
