So is the closing of DU2 imminent?

[quinnox]

I see there is a admin notification DU3 will be going live "soon".

I was under the impression that there were many features still to be implemented in DU3 and it was going to be a period of time, like a month or two, while they work out the kinks in the preview before its set as the permanent DU.

1. I believe it will be by the first of the year

2. Probably by the 15th, or maybe this weekend

When it happens and I find out will post a thread about it to let ya know ;)

12. I hope you're right about the switchover being before the end of the month

I don't plan to be sober enough to start learning my way about DU3 on New Year's Day!

3. I heard middle of December .....

4. I wondered the same. Should we bother to bookmark?

As I understand things, our bookmarks will be gone. Good info saved and then lost.
I don't even understand where we should post now. Both sites? A cut off date for DU2 would be a help.

5. and will the 2 content not be available?

I confess that I have no idea what's happening to the content.

9. The content of DU2 will remain

But will no longer be able to post or anything, just look at it or link to it.

11. oh cool.

okay then :D

10. yeah what about it?

It bugs me how you can choose this site or that one, but they're totally different sites. I wish we could make all the changes while keeping the comments and threads all in ONE site.

On some of the slower pages it's interesting to go back in time and catch up on what was posted a long time ago. But now it'll all be gone forever?

13. DU2 will be saved on a read-only server

So we'll still have access to it.

6. There seems to be less drama here lately, to me, not looking forward to this ship sinking...(nt)

7. I have little concern about change. I usually adapt quickly and well

However, I haven’t been able to log on. Requested and received a password change because I haven’t needed to use the password for here and so I forgot it. But I haven’t been able to change the password to DU3. So I am in no hurry for the closing of DU2

8. I've seen no date announce but it looks to be very soon
