Could well prove to be the case, despite much of America being tucked away in their beds.
Watch out if you are using the upgrade page. It generated a redemption code for me, but after entering the code (contained in a password protected pdf) the appstore failed and immediately told me that the code was already used and could not be used again.
I've already tried to contact apple support, hopefully hear back something positive soon.

So 2002. If only we could have Wing Commander again on 25 3.5" floppy disks. That'd be great.
Fancy software boxes will always be welcome. Apple is all about image and packaging. It's a shame they don't do packaging for software anymore. I know it's not necessary, but I always enjoyed it.
This is why you should still be able to buy a copy from the store, on a disk. The UK always gets shafted by Apple in some way or another, and it's waring very thin.
Took only minutes for me.
As for form errors, they went away when I switched from Chrome to Safari, but that could be a coincidence. Data point of just one.
edit: Now I'm hitting the app store errors for code not recognized.
Chances are if they downloaded the GM from certain sources (and were not developers) they probably haven't bothered downloading it officially from the store yet and are waiting for other people to comment on the build number, which means nothing as there are often differences in retail build number and the GM......
Hmmm, older than I remember, thought it was 5 years, not 6... Blah. Suppose my Mac Pro from May 2007 is not suitable either. Poo.

Started my Download in New York about 9:15am
My download seems to be going OK! I have about 1.47 downloaded already and it says there is about 26 minutes left to finish the download. The time left keeps fluctuating though. Right after I download I will be making a USB Key and then upgrade my Mid 2011 21.5" iMac! Cant wait!! If it seems to go slow or something after my upgrade I will just use the USB Key to do a clean install. We shall see!

Question...
Entered all the information for my upgrade program.
At the end, I got a claim code. However, I thought this is just a receipt of the form and that Apple would get back to me further.
Is that code actually a redemption code?
How do I apply it to App Store purchase?
Sorry if this has already been discussed. So many pages of content here.

The app store code is send through email once they confirm your purchase date et all ... The code you have is just a reference code as far as I understand.
