Downtime.
 

We very well could be going down tonight to move to our new server. It all depends on how a few of these inital site transfers (see below) work. If it does happen, it will be somewhere around 7-9PM EST and could take a few hours to move.

Yes, it is day 3 in the season, but I'd rather take it down for a few hours tonight and let EVERYBODY have at it tomorrow, rather than block everyone above 250-275 users. Our new server is a Dual Xeon 3.20Ghz with 2GB of RAM and 2x73 SCSI HDD. We shouldn't have any problems with traffic for a while, and if we ever do we have a bunch of upgrade options without having to move again.

So, when the site does go down for the move, a message will be posted here, as well as status updates on when it will return. While it is down, maybe re-read the rules or sleep or something. :)

FIRSTwiki.org is already moved (awating DNS to be changed)
deansimmonsandthekamens.com is moving as I type this.
ChiefDelphi.com will move tonight, when I can give it 100% attention.

Re: Downtime.
 

sounds good. How much could this thing theoretically support? Where is it going to be capped, or is it?

CD will be able to run for many years to come on the new machine.
