* The site will be down most of the day, starting at 9am EST (GMT -5)

* Duration is unknown, but I would expect 8 hours. Hopefully it will be shorter.

* We are transferring to slicehost.com hosting, so the result should be stupid-fast everything and tons of bandwidth. Also, the db locking problem has been back recently, and I hope this move takes care of whatever software package on the current server is causing it.

* Unfortunately, this process is bound by the upstream bandwidth from the current server to the slice.

* To prevent write activities while doing the transfer (wiki, svn, forumss, tickets, etc.), the entire site needs to be down. I am going to attempt some configuration things, so the site possibly will be up read-only, but if that doesn't work, the entire thing will be inaccessible.

* I will be on Freenode IRC in #d as '''boorad''' for the ''occasional'' status check.

* I apologize if this message sounds like I'm treating you all as crack-addict fiends who can't bear to be without for any period of time.
