Code Push/Update Window

[mark]

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.

Thanks a lot - maybe I should have known/guessed, but I don't really use/understand Twitter. Might it be an idea to have a link in this comm's profile for dumb-dumbs like me?

Belatedly, but it's on the profile now: http://dw-maintenance.dreamwidth.org/profile

Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for adding it to the profile (I have made sure to bookmark it, myself, but since I've accidentally deleted my bookmarks before, it's good to know where to find the url again) :o)

Wasn't me, was mark, but hope he sees this *waves and grins*.
