Code Push/Update Window
I'm scheduling a maintenance window for Friday, July 3rd, 2009 between the hours of 8PM-10PM PDT (0300-0500 GMT). This window is for doing a code push/site update.
The actual update won't take two hours, but I'm giving a little room so I can do some other maintenance tasks at the same time. (Database flips, backup testing, etc.) You can expect the site to go down briefly a few times. Total downtime should be no more than 10-15 minutes.
If in doubt, write your posts/comments in your text editor of choice (vim!) and we'll see you on the flip side. As always, I will update this community and Twitter as things happen.
