Site Updates

Argh! Avast-ye, Maties! Thar be Rough Waters A-hed!

It’s web host changing time here in DFE land, and I couldn’t be less thrilled.  True, there will be some significant improvements to the site going forward that won’t be possible on my current host, but the transition is not fun.

For example, changing registrars takes about a week or so, during which any updates to this current version of the site will be lost to the new version until it’s updated, and there’s no warning when the switch happens.  So, if you see this same post here in a week or so, you’ll know the switch has happened and I am frantically trying to pull together the updates for the site in the meanwhile.  Or maybe I just say “the hell with it,” I haven’t decided yet.

Beyond that, the challenge for me will be making sure that the new site and databases exactly mirror the old, otherwise there could be some complications associated with the move.  Yeah, that’s fun.

So, wish me luck, people.  The site will continue to be updated, albeit sparingly, over the next week and then the good times start after that.
