We forgot to mention that Aden has gracefully donated a second server, hades.de.eu.synirc.net, for our European pool. This server was accepted as a test link on 19 June 2011 and was promoted to a full link on 27 July 2011.

We will be conducting maintenance on network services around 9am EDT on Tuesday, 28 June 2011 to upgrade network services to the newest available stable version. Services will be offline for the upgrade but this should take no more than a few minutes. No registrations should be affected.

As part of the upgrade, we will be aliasing /ns sendpass to /ns resetpass so /ns sendpass works as expected, even with the encrypted services passwords.

Months in the making, we have finally launched our redesigned site. We hope that this site will be more useful to current and prospective users.

In the near future, we're planning to roll out further enhancements:

• SSL on the forum and webchat
• Upgrading the forum

If you have any further recommendations for the site or if you have any issues, please let us know via the forum.

bEnnox replaced zero.dk.eu.synirc.net with unity.dk.eu.synirc.net in April. unity.dk.eu.synirc.net is a much newer server and supports IPv6 which zero did not.
