Forum stability/reachability

[Marten Deinum]

Is it just me or has the stability/reachability of the forum decreased. I keep getting errors when I try to access the forum, it is not accesible. Are there more who have this issue? It might of course be due to the popular demand of Spring :).

So I am not the only one. Yes, I also encounter temporary site unavailability from time to time. Not only the forum but also the main Spring website seems to be affected.

I had problems over the weekend and yesterday, I thought it was just my connection until I realised everything else was fine.

The last few weeks I have this issue quite frequently. Sometimes it is 1 minute sometimes it is 30.

Hmmm not sure. I guess it could be demand :).

[Marten Deinum]

That is what I'm thinking. Maybe they need to replace their DSL with another solution ;)

I guess we'll have to see how it goes. I've not seen that many problems, just the odd time. Then again I've not really spent that long on here recently. See how it goes.

Colin has been in the process of moving the forum from one provider to another for about the last n months. I think we want it to be as seamless as possible, so there is a lot to do, and he is pretty busy with other things, so try and be patient.

Thanks for the update Dave. It's understandable there are going to be minor glitches, it's nice to know there is a reason for it :).
