FYI - as you can see - we upgraded the software that runs these forums. The older system was just causing too many problems.

All of your user accounts and messages have been imported into the new system. Nothing should have been lost.

However, since passwords are encrypted within the database - those were not imported. So - the first time you try to log-in the system will ask for your email address and will send you a link to allow you to set a new password.

We apologize for the inconvenience but hope that this upgrade will provide a more stable and useful service.

thanks
