URGENT! Website upgrade this Tues/Wed

Post by Cam »

Hi all,

The new website is ready to go live. We plan to perform the upgrade this tuesday/wednesday.

The website will go down tuesday evening and come back up on wednesday morning.

Depending on how the messageboard port goes, this may take an extra day or two to complete, so please bear with us.

See you on the other side... 8) 8)

Will there be a temporary landing page to let people know what's going on - far better than a 404 error or similar.

Hi everyone,

in answer to your questions, the website will swap over shortly this morning to the new website, this should be pretty instantaneous but the messageboard might well be out of action for a couple of days as all the information is ported over. Believe it or not there is a large amount of data as we port 15 years worth of postings into the new messageboard software!

We are nearly there, so bear with us and things should be back up and running very soon.

:D

Ever planned to do an engine swap over the weekend and you can't get a bolt undone or a tool goes missing?

Better done properly than fast. It's been fine as it is for a long time. A delay won't hurt.
