   I just gotta ask, because obviously we have a big number of cross-over readers here between ewillys and OldWillysForum – what’s happening over there? It’s been down for at least a week…. when will it be back?

   That’s all very interesting, but has nothing to do with what I am asking about….

   Hi Don,

   I don’t know anything about it, but I looked on their facebook page and learned this from Pete:

   “A huge Thanks to everyone for being patient while we rework the forum! We’ve been down for nearly a week now, way longer than I expected… In the last nine years, the forum has never been down for more than 24 hours.
   The conversion of the forum database to the new forum software is well underway, and should be wrapping up this afternoon if all goes according to plan. Getting the image attachments and gallery reconnected is the hardest part, and takes the longest. Once we get the basic forum up and running, we will be adding all the details back into the forum (graphics, icons, avatars, new features,etc) over the coming weeks.
   Looking forward to seeing you all back on the forum shortly!”

   Hi Dave – Thanks very much for that! It simply never occurred to me to look on Facebook… Now I know everything is fine, and I will sleep much better.

   Yep, I saw that too! Now, life can return to normal – ewillys and OldWillysForum…. thanks for facilitating communication on this, Dave.
