As discussed in a previous thread, we've been looking at migrating this forum to different software (XenForo) that is being actively maintained and enhanced, and has more features.
Now we're almost ready to do that. In fact, it's scheduled for this coming Monday, September 7th, which is a holiday here in the USA. This migration will inevitably involve some down-time for the forum. Hopefully it will not be more than a few hours.
If anyone is interested in a preview of the new software, you can see it here. The database there is a 'snapshot' of the current vBulletin software taken a couple of weeks ago. Your existing login credentials should work there. You can post there, but please be aware: Anything you post there before we make the final cut-over will disappear when we do make the final change-over on Monday. In addition, we aren't quite finished implementing all the goodies; some of them will have to wait until after the cut-over.
Let us know what you think of the new stuff, but please do that here, not in the new forum. Again, anything do now in the new forum now will be lost Monday.
