Attention: a notice to all SAAC Forum users:
We are preparing for a major upgrade and migration of SAAC Forum to a new server.
This will consist of freezing the Forum and closing it down for a final backup.
Then, there will be a migration to our new server that currently hosts saac.com.
The plan is to shut the Forum down at approximately 3:00 PM on Sunday (tomorrow) April 7th.
The transfer will be done overnight and the software will be tested on Monday.
If the migration is successful, we should be back up and running by Monday evening, with the same data and a new look.
Your login and password should NOT be impacted; simply login to the new version.
The NEW login button will be in the Upper Left of the home page.
saacforum.com requests will be automatically redirected to the new server location.
If you are in the middle of any transactions or you have data / images that are critical for you, please capture and download them before tomorrow at 3:00 PM.
We hope the migration is one hundred percent but in case of a problem, it may take longer for us to finish the move.
We should gain the benefit of integration with saac.com, as well as a speed improvement... And certainly we will bring the Forum software up to the latest version.
Thanks for your patience.
