announcements: Site Update

Site Update
Okay,

We have fixed the one major bug that was plaguing the development server. We are nearly ready to push out the new update. The one remaining problem lies in notifications. If that is not critical for everyone I am willing to push this update out the door as is. Though since it has been so long since we have updated, I can't guarantee that the site isn't going to experience some weird errors and possible downtime as I work out any bugs that might show up.

Right now, the update will bring media embedding, some long needed bug fixes, and a newer update page. I am really concerned about getting the bug fixes, including the fix for comment rot, out the door asap.

Please let me know how you all would like to see me proceed. I am okay with doing beta testing and some bug fixing work on the live site if you all are too.

	Well, comment notification isn't a dire need, as long as it does come back eventually. I know I, at least, would be willing to put up with a few bugs/downtime/whatever to see a huge update like this for the site, especially since you're giving us fair warning about it. (That way I won't freak out if I can't get to IJ for a bit!) (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Regular comment notification should still work, its just the subscriptions that might not work. But I am trying to get that resolved asap. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, I see. (And yes, it does, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten this notification, ha...) In that case I'm all for updating and working through the bugs as they come along. (Reply to this) (Parent)
