The site will be slow tonight because I'm running a test data conversion in preparation for a site upgrade.
Sorry!
Firstly, thank you to everyone who's helped out so far.
But I need more volunteers for testing the code at buffistas.net. It's basically a snapshot of the data from a few days ago, so your ID is already set up.
Please, please, go over there and try and break things. Please post the results, positive or negative in the BBABB++ over there.
Thanks for your help. The sooner this is done, the sooner I can upgrade b.org.

Tonight at 11pm I'll be running a background job that will slow down or stop the board's performance. I don't know for how long--hopefully about an hour or so.
Looks like I won't be affecting performance tonight. Tomorrow night, starting at 10pm board time, I'll be taking it fully down for the upgrade. Which hopefully won't take too long, because I need my beauty sleep.
The upgrade is complete. Please report any problems in BBABB++. If you encounter any threads with duplicate posts with early dates, please don't post in them, just report them.
Oh, a note--all duplicate posts numbers are gone now, and should stay gone. Please check your bookmarks in case they've shifted by a post or two.
