    Hey everyone,

    We'll be having some intermittent downtime starting at 03 May 2015 (tomorrow), 21:00 UTC/22:00 WEST/23:00 CEST/00:00 EEST, whilst I perform a major upgrade on the server (Debian 7 --> Debian 8 for anyone interested).

    The expected timeline is listed below:
    • 21:00 UTC - Website, Forums, IRC and TeamSpeak all shutdown.
    • 21:01 UTC - Backups taken of all relevant data and copied to a remote server
    • 21:20 UTC (or once backups are complete) - Preparation of server for upgrades
    • 21:30 UTC - Server upgrade initiation
    • 21:45 UTC - Reboot for kernel upgrade
    • 21:50 UTC - IRC upgrade (recompilation of latest versions of InspIRCd/atheme)
    • 21:50 UTC - Website, Forums and TeamSpeak online.
    • 22:00 UTC - IRC online.
    This assumes everything goes to plan, if the upgrade fails then I will have to wipe the server down, re-install all the software and restore the backups. Hopefully that won't happen, because if it does I'm going to be staying up quite late. :p

    Sorry for any inconvenience!
    Jack

    My first thought was that we were going to do something with VLC.
