Downtime Thursday afternoon

[Elad]

Democratic Underground will be temporarily unavailable Thursday afternoon (July 16) while our ISP performs upgrades and maintenance to our network hardware. This work will help maintain the long-term reliability of our servers and network hardware.

The work will begin around 2pm EDT (11am PDT). Downtime is anticipated to be anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours. During this time, you may have sporadic access to the site, or no access at all.

We apologize for the inconvenience and thanks for your understanding!
