I've just signed up for new hosting. In the next week or so, we'll be transfering everything over, and when everything is working, we'll lock the boards on this server. If you happen to come on while the DNS is in the process of updating, we'll leave a link you can access the new server from.
jeep, get on AIM when you have time.

No, everything will be transfered over. There may be a small period where the forums are locked while that's happening (so we don't miss anything).

AIM tonight and tomorrow. I have a backup, but just in case you should take one too.
Basic process to follow:
Install forum on new server - done Merge in latest updates to 2.0.17 - done Test (make sure we have PEAR libraries installed, etc) Lock forum and change editor p/w on wiki Make a post as an administrator Backup forum. I think we should generate SQL statements instead of just backing up the database (This takes about an hour.) Restore forum on new site by running the SQL (another hour) Test forum (ensure the post after we locked it is there.) Post link to new server, by IP address, as a global announcement Switch DNS Ceeelll- e - brate good times, woo hoo. Move archive forum Move wiki Move other stuff (main page going to go directly to wiki?) - in progress Fix broken links, if any

Brilliant news, BUT will you be moving your DNS to a new host? as the DNS has been the cause of most of the problems for the NZers at least, and i suspect many more.
