Hey all. Almost there. Kernel upgrade, OS upgrade, several language upgrades, phpBB upgrade, and a database upgrade done. Will be doing one more software upgrade and then cleaning up.

Okay! Sorry about the downtime there folks. I keep a snapshot of the entire state of the entire application and I did 3 of them today which took forever to do - to make sure that I didn't mess something up while I was doing all of the updates.

We're one minor point release behind but it doesn't actually add any useful features in my opinion, so I'll either skip to the next point release if it has something useful in it or just wait until the next major release.

I'll probably do another OS upgrade when Ubuntu releases 22.04, probably sometime around early July.

If you have any issues, let me know (post them here probably for fastest response).

PS I was out of town last week and I owe people like 100 emails, I'm getting to them I promise, thanks for everyones' patience!

I had to kill a few Cyrillic posts today. Check to make sure your 'bot is working.
