Hey all,
It's time for the semi-annual major security patch and system software upgrade work. So on Saturday the 10th from around 7a local (11A GMT) the forum and www sites will be offline for updates ("page cannot be displayed" errors).
I'll have things running as quickly as possible with 11am as the outside target to be done.
Sorry for any inconvenience,
I

Heyo!

No, I wasn't able to start yet. I've been trying since 5 to get a good full-system-snapshot incase things go horribly wrong so I can just format and stream the contents of the hard drive back on (different than the daily database dumps I do) and for some reason the backup software isn't making a bootable restore disk. Not wanting to risk it I'm gonna keep working on figuring that out and reschedule this fun for some other time :)

Have a good day all!

Oh wow! Long day for you already! Sorry about the hassles with this stuff.

I'll comment at FB too and when you reschedule I'll update it.

Thanks for all this!
