We are currently in the middle of a transition of our website to a new server, this will likely incur some down time next week.

While the current server is fine in most respects it occasionally has load spikes that when a number of events occur at the same time, and this has been detrimental on some verification calls. The existing server is a shared box whose resources are kindly donated by the bcwireless.net guys.

The new server has been built and the OS installed and is due to be installed at the colo space some time this week. We will be using the weekend to do testing and upgrades to the site as needed since we'll be using a different distro on the new server.

Once we're happy everything works as it should, we'll shut down the existing website/database to allow us to copy the current data across and then the switch will be flipped on the new server. It's hoped at that point everything should be up and running with only minor inconvenience to everyone.
