We are migrating over to new forum software.
The site should be back online sometime on January 1st.
When we return, you will need to retrieve a new password.
Here is a getting started guide for Discourse, our new software, if you're wanting to get a head start on learning its features.
Keep watching below for updates on the migration progress.
Thank you for your patience!

I just noticed there are 2 big issues with the import (due to some last minute, rushed changes I made).
I've just fixed those and ran a few more tests.
Time to start over, unfortunately.
