As I've updated https://sites.google.com/site/rowanium/ to reflect, my profile has been reinstated. Just thought I'd post here and let everyone know as well.
From what I've seen discussed (by you in comments on public G+ posts) of your appeals process, I see that Google accepted Facebook as a "reputable site". (Wow, that particular relationship between Google and Facebook is a joke waiting to happen, isn't it?)
Did you happen to have any of your websites in the links list of your profile at the time the account was suspended?
I'm wondering if one way for someone to fend off spurious suspensions might be to list a bunch of their websites in their G+ profile, pre-emptively... although... that would still depend upon whether Google might or might not consider them "reputable".
Hrm.

I'm happy to hear you're back! I really hope that google gets everything figured out and allows people to use whatever name they want.
It's sorta funny that I read this post, and then read about you in one of cnet's articles. I'm happy that people are finding out about it though - we need people to be vocal!
O.O
