    Scheduled Maintenance on 2nd August 2009 was completed successfully

    I am in the process of decommissioning the old server that is running planetskaro.org.uk and moving to a new dedicated server. I have already migrated my website and email to the new machine and as agreed by the Admins, PS will be joining them as well.

    The move will start on Sunday August 2nd at 12 midday (BST) when the site will be put into maintenance mode, the files and data copied across and made available on http://new.planetskaro.org.uk. This new address is temporary and exists to allow PS to continue as normal whilst the DNS changes take 48 hours or so to propagate around the internet.

    Please allow one hour for the migration and testing to take place; I expect http://new.planetskaro.org.uk to be functional by 1pm on the 2nd.

    On the new server, both http://new.planetskaro.org.uk and http://www.planetskaro.org.uk will point to the same set of files and data. Once the DNS changes have completed, http://new.planetskaro.org.uk will automatically redirect to http://www.planetskaro.org.uk.
