ATTENTION: CF will be upgrading hardware and changing datacenters...

[Theresasjourney]

This is going to happen this weekend.

HOWEVER - the downtime will be minimal because I'm going to try a new-fangled way of migrating to the new server - the downtime will really only be time to freeze the database from new posts so that it is copied to our new database server, then the current webservers can point to it.

In other words, downtime will be approximately 20 minutes at the most of not being able to post new posts.

That's my prediction at the moment - pray that nothing goes wrong!

thanks for the heads up Erwin~~I will be praying for you and that it all goes smoothly.
