Sep. 6, 2025: Update: Temporary Message Board Closure

Update: Board ourage has been delayed due to consultant's schedule. Outage TBD.

The company hosting the message board sprung a surprise price hike on me that would have more than tripled the monthly hosting costs, so I've been scrambling to find an alternative. I've purchased a license for self-hosting a different platform and am hiring a consultant to migrate the existing board's content (posts, user profiles, etc.).

However, this means I need to shut down the message board for anywhere from 3 days to (hopefully less than) a week so the data can be migrated. While this is an expensive proposition up front, it should result in some long-term savings.

I will post updates here. The main site (where you are reading this), will NOT be affected.

-Dan
