We will be upgrading network services to version 1.8.4 of Anope during the morning (around 11am EDT) of Sunday, 11 July 2010. The upgrade is being done to ensure that we have the latest version of services and the bug fixes that includes. This is also being done in preparation for planned future changes to network services.
During the upgrade process, services will be offline for a few minutes. We will keep this downtime to a minimum. No registrations or other information stored in services will be changed as part of this upgrade.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me personally via the private message function of our forums. You can also speak with network staff in our #help channel.
