Site/forum downtime Sunday morning

I'm planning on trying to deal with some very long standing problems with the site in the morning, and I expect there to be a bit of downtime.

Might be worth emailing Tahir to warn him. He's not usually around on Saturdays and he's in at work on Sunday mornings.
jema

I don't think I'll have started by the time he pops in Sunday.

Furry nuff.

Maybe a silly question, but...

... would it be possible (and not too difficult) to redirect ALL access attempts to a single page (with the logo) that just says: "The site is currently down for planned maintenance and should be back up before 1800 GMT today 4 Feb 2007" (or whatever target you are utterly confident of beating).

The actual wording is unimportant; its the presence of an explanation that is important, IMHO.

Deadline wise I'm pretty much aiming at the 5 minute mark!

It was Smile Not sure how long it was, plan A failed and I had to go to plan B.

Long enough to bid on some stuff on eBay. make pancakes with butter pecan syrup for my younger and myself and to annoy someone on Rivercottage.

You should do it more often, I get all productive.
Jonnyboy

You didn't rest the pancake batter and the syrup came from a bottle. Wink

Won't let me upload pictures at the moment... Something knackered?
