We're working on enhancing our firewalls today. This means this site and others on the 'stable' server will be off the air for a few minutes in the next 25 minutes.

This has been completed for a while now :) 

We're working to counter a security breach on the stable server (it seams not only web 2.0 software is vulnerable to attacks - the site that was used as an entry point was running old-fashioned web 0.99 forum software ;) ). We'll let you know what we've done after we are finished. The affected sites are back online. We may restart the server once or twice this week, so you might experience some downtime - which we'll try to keep to a minimum.

The last time we restarted this server was 126 days ago, so we are not doing that bad...

After a succesfull test period on the 'experimental' sites, we have now upgraded the 'stable' sites to drupal5.7. to incorporate imporant security updates, sites were down for only a few seconds. After that, we also performed security upgrades for modules nodewords (meta tags) and archive and a minor update on admin_menu (the pulldown menu for administrators). All should be well, let us know if something inadvertently stopped working on your site.
