Biotoxic_hazard_835 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Can't wait to see the new layout, but I hope the downtime can be kept to a minimum. I need my Neowin fix ya know :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1015644-some-downtime-later-today-friday-29-july/page/4/#findComment-594201490 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis W. Veteran Posted July 29, 2011 Veteran Share Posted July 29, 2011 please tell me you dropped all IE6 support :laugh: I just fired up XP Mode and had a look. The site is actually quite intact in IE6. Of course, there's a honking orange banner at the top urging IE6 users to upgrade to IE9 (no Firefox, Chrome, Opera? boo!). On the other hand, the current IPB3 forums are a raging disaster in IE6.

DaveLegg Developer Posted July 29, 2011 Developer Share Posted July 29, 2011 I hope the downtime can be kept to a minimum. Fractions of a second is the plan, and then allow a few minutes for the promo images on the front page to be re-created to the new dimensions, but that's about all that ought to be noticeable. 2/3 of the upgrade phases are actually done already, did you notice? Just waiting for all the devs to say they're happy with the code, and then it will go into a QA phase, and will be pushed out as soon as it passes that satisfactorily.

The_Decryptor Veteran Posted July 29, 2011 Veteran Share Posted July 29, 2011 ...why? When you swap out the hamsters, it's in their contract. No idea why you let them unionise.
