2010-10-01 Notice of maintenance

[EHM-0654 Murray]

At 20:00Z on Saturday 9th October we're going to be upgrading most of the software on our VPS. We're kind of hopeful that everything will continue to work after the upgrade (so no noticeable downtime), but it's likely that given we're upgrading MySQL, Apache and PHP (along with a lot of boring back-end bits and pieces), we'll have an hour or two of fettling after just to restore full functionality. We don't know yet if PP/Flight Logger will be affected by the upgrade, but it's probable it will, so we kindly ask if you could avoid flying PP flights between 20:00Z and 00:00Z (unless we post something to the contrary after 20:00Z)

Thanks in advance.

Didn't get a chance to run the update on Saturday (my real-world employer had a bit of a crisis, I spent all day in the office and as a result I was shattered by the time I got home) but I've just finished doing it now and from what I can see so far, no ill effects.

Can I respectfully ask all members to keep their eyes open for problems and let us know straight away here in the forums (I'll make a thread in the online support category momentarily).
