I just wanted to apologize for the recent interruptions in the forums service. Our main database server that holds several thousand databases ran out of disk space. It happened so rapidly that it was not something that could have been easily predicted. In any event the problem is being corrected and the databases replicated to a new server with more space.
There may be more interruptions throughout the day today (Sunday Feb. 5th).
Don't panic, the forum is still very much around and will stay that way for the foreseeable future.
