Over the next 48 hours, I'm going to be performing a few minor upgrades and refits to Flare. During each one of these, the forums will not be accessable - you'll receive a message indicating that the site is down for mantainence. These periods of downtime should each last less than 15 minutes. The one that was just performed took less than a minute.
Besides two small cosmetic changes, both of which have already been performed, anything I'm doing will be completely transparent to you.
Flare II will launch late on Dec 1st or early on the 2nd. Downtime for the upgrade will no more than an hour and no less than 15 minutes, depending on the time of day. Immediately after the upgrade, new registrations will be disabled until I can verify that the new SENIRS system is perfectly stable. I don't anticipate any problems.
This should be the last major upgrade that will be noticble by you guys until next March, which will be Flare's first anniversary. At that time I'll upgrade the forums once again to the latest version of the UBB. A note about Flare II: I may be altering (or maybe even disabling) the search feature to speed things up a bit. I'll be keeping an eye on the access logs to see how much it's really used.

May one enquire why it is good to upgrade to each new version of UBB? Is there anything particularly wrong with the current one?

There are some nasty bugs in the backend of this UBB, and some coding improvements in 5.4... That and I needed to redo the entire profile system for SENIRS.
I sorta forgot that today isn't the 31st but the 1st... Thus the above schedule is bumped a day back.

Okay, I'm going to sleep now. That's the cue for Santa Capps to come and leave a brand new (or at the very least upgraded) set of Forums under the tree for good little Trek fans.
Hmm... What does Santa Capps bring to bad little Trek fans?
