Comment (by leif):

 I forgot to mention: the issue with the "Since" entry for disconnected
 servers displaying the time the page was rendered was actually only
 happening for servers that the gateway hadn't ever connected to.

 The cause is that server.get_last_loss_time() returns None, which was
 being passed to time.localtime() which of course helpfully returns the
 present time when it gets no argument OR if its argument is None.

 My branch says N/A in this case instead.
