Hello,

unfortunately, I have some bad news to share - I did not manage to transfer the website today.
Murphy hit me several times: Yesterday, for several hours, broadband was 
broke almost everywhere in southern Germany, then today, bilbo's SSD had 
a crash and needed a replacement (mail & downloads were down), which 
then took much longer than usually. Plus, we had to cope with high load 
on kermit again - in other words: two days of chaos, and totally 
disrupted schedule. Although I worked until 0130 last night, the backlog 
was just too high to be ready in time today. And the more I dig, the 
more I find undocumented stuff that I have to first find out and 
properly document to transfer it to the new machine. It's an extremely 
tedious task...
The good news is that everything is prepared for transferring sites: web 
and mail server is ready, DNS TTL is set to 5 minutes for an easy 
switch, and tomorrow, Christian, Alex and I will meet here onsite to 
work realtime on the system.
I did not manage at all to have a look at the new proposed website 
design, so I cannot promise it will be live in time, because I simply 
lack any insight so far.
We will decide tomorrow, based on what is going on, what we can migrate 
and what not, and which steps to take to ensure proper operations during 
the 4.0 release. If possible, my plan would be to migrate the wiki and 
the web site in parallel to cope with the high load. If this goes well, 
we still can embed the new website content, either into Silverstripe or 
statically. As Christian is here, and we have a fast connection between 
the servers, I'm positive, but I wouldn't bet on it.
Sorry for this mess, but when everything around breaks, you're sometimes 
out of luck...
Let's keep our fingers crossed all goes well. :-)

Florian
