Scheduled Maintenance

Post by Admin »

The Forum will be unavailable for (hopefully) under about 15 minutes this evening between 8 and 8:30 for a software upgrade to the latest release. Visitors will see a page notifying them of the board's unavailability while it is offline. In addition to some bug fixes, one new feature we are aware of is that users will no longer be able to use their login name as their password. If you happen to fall into that group, the system, post-upgrade, will require you to choose a new password at your next login.

Hopefully, this will be of minimal inconvenience. Those creating lengthy posts during that window are advised to copy to a text file before hitting Submit.

Post-Upgrade edit: Apparently, all went well, and we're back.
