Title: Scheduled maintenance, 2017-06-18
Post by: xasop on June 13, 2017, 01:23:21 PM
The homepage, forum, wiki and IRC will be going offline for up to 2 hours on 2017-06-18, between 08:00 and 10:00 UTC.

For convenience, this means:

EDT (USA east coast):
2017-06-18, 04:00-06:00

BST (UK):
2017-06-18, 09:00-11:00

CEST (Most of Europe):
2017-06-18, 10:00-12:00

AEST (Australia east coast):
2017-06-18, 18:00-20:00


The server will be upgraded to a newer stable release of its operating system. This introduces the risk that problems will arise after the maintenance; in case any are noted, please create a thread in Suggestions & Concerns so that we can deal with it. Thank you.

The part of the maintenance requiring downtime is complete, and the homepage, forum, wiki and IRC server are back up. The IRC webchat interface still appears to be broken; I'm working on fixing that right now.

Instead of fixing the old webchat, I've installed some new, actively maintained, and apparently more mobile-friendly software.

There are still some odds and ends I need to take care of, but nothing that should be visible to anyone else.
