Outages Advanced Warning - Forum Upgrade

[theduck 782]

The forum software that we currently use is long overdue an update, and I am pleased to say that this will be taking place in the near future. This will mean that the forum will be out of action while the upgrade work is undertaken. A large part of the upgrade work is being undertaken by our software providers who are unable to give a definitive date as to when they will undertake their share of the work, only that it will be within the next three weeks. During the outage we will keep members updated via the facebook group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/514980222217443/

Please expect the forum to be out of action for a couple of days when the upgrade takes place.

Just to add to what Stuart had said, obviously the downtime isn't ideal but it's unavoidable. Now is probably the best time to do it as there aren't a lot of events coming up that people need to keep informed about and the general traffic on the forum does seem quite low.
