IRC Maintenance: 5 May 2018 (You should read this)

As users, you don’t often get a peek behind the curtain of what we do to maintain the site and the IRC server. Typically updates and upgrades are fairly seamless, and that’s a good thing. However, we do have a change planned this weekend that will be disruptive, so heads up:

THE IRC SERVER WILL GO DOWN FOR MAINTENANCE ON SATURDAY, 5 MAY 2018 from 1600-2000 GMT

ALL NICK REGISTRATIONS WILL BE RESET.

ALL CHANNEL REGISTRATIONS WILL BE RESET.

YOU WILL HAVE TO RENEW YOUR REGISTRATION.

What’s changing?

In short, we are upgrading the stack to a new architecture, updating to newer versions of some of the infrastructure, and making things a little more resilient.

We’re also adjusting how we handle the #0x00sec channel, but more announcements on that to come.

On behalf of the 0x00sec staff,

Suser would like for me to say that he was here, but he never gets on the forum, so he wasn’t.

Suser being suser again?

Anyways… hm… this’ll be somewhat inconvenient but I also don’t have to hear suser for a bit… :stuck_out_tongue:

I hope everything goes smoothly with the updates.

The maintenance window is now complete.

Notice: if you have any issues, please message me at fraq on Wire ASAP.

Oh and for the record: Webchat/Kiwi IRC is now at https://webchat.0x00sec.org
