The Akismet team was related to a timing bug in the code, however that has now been fixed and a new version of Akismet has been released. The problem was a bug in the plugin’s diagnostic code that caused it to falsely report problems in some circumstances, even though everything was working correctly. Upgrading to Akismet 2.2.5 will solve the connectivity reporting issues you may have been seeing.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve noticed a disturbing trend. Many of the plugin authors I have spoken with throughout the community tell me that very rarely do they ever get a donation let alone a Thank You for releasing their work to the public.

Since 2.8.1 is now released, I wish Dev4Press would redo their benchmarks.
