Forum Maintenance - Friday 3rd April

[CitroXim]

I shall be taking the forum down early in the morning of Good Friday to install a whole raft of patches and updates to the forum web and database servers...

I expect the work to take place at around 05:00 BST and take about 30 minutes...

I apologise here and now for any inconvenience this may cause...

All is now complete, let me know if anything seems odd..

Folks, there will be a short outage again at around 04:30 on Saturday morning whilst I resolve a small issue with the web sever as a result of enhanced security protection mechanisms introduced with the latest updates.

You may not even see the forums go down...

Touch wood...

All work now completed successfully

And completed at silly o’clock even by my standards!

I was suffering an attack of sleeplessness so thought I'd so something useful...
