Code push Saturday
We will be doing a code push on Saturday 22 Sept. Prep work should begin at around 6PM PDT (9PM EDT (UTC -4), 1AM Sunday 23 Sept UTC), with the actual release itself likely happening anywhere between 7PM and 8PM PDT.
This push is going to be slightly more involved than our usual code deployment process. (It's the first push using our new backend version control system and we need to do a bunch of work for the conversion, much of which has to be done at the time of the push and not before, which is why we can't give you a more accurate estimate.) The actual downtime involved should hopefully be minimal -- as is standard with a code push, at most it should be a few minutes of actual downtime -- but brace yourself for the possibility of brief Utter Weirdness. We'll have all hands on deck to fix any problems that crop up.
