Server upgrade and move - possible downtime

Hi guys,

There may be some disruption to the forum over the weekend.
I setup a new server several weeks ago, and hope to move the forum onto it over the next few days, provided everything goes according to plan. I had intended on doing this last month but unfortunately several other things have got in the way.

This may mean some downtime or the site being unreachable for a time. I'll make every effort to keep this to a minimum, or do it out of hours, if possible.

The good news is its much newer hardware and the upstream connection in particular will be many orders of magnitude better than the current provision. This means things such as slow attachment downloads and other issues, should be a thing of the past. It should also enable the Email notification and password reset functionality to work properly again.

Cheers

CiarĂ¡n
