Over the weekend, I upgraded the site to MySQL 4.0.16 (and a lot of other items were upgraded as well). There were some hiccups, but I *think* everything went off without a hitch. If you notice any problems, let me know right away at das@doit.wisc.edu. Thanks!

Hi Das, you have done a great service to folks who own E60. Keep up with the good work! I prefer this forum to the one hosted by Roadfly.

Sorry about the downtime this afternoon; an automated script I had put the forums back in maintenance mode. That's fixed, so it shouldn't happen again!

Thanks again for your patience through the upgrade over the weekend!

Thanks; and thanks again for your patience.

(For anyone who is wondering what has been going on, there are apparently some serious issues with the Apple-supplied version of MySQL 4.0.16 with Mac OS X Server 10.3.x with regard to numeric and date sorting. It doesn't affect this forum, but it affected a bunch of other MySQL-based stuff on this same machine. It turns out that this was a known problem, but isn't fixed yet...so I've switched to the standard MySQL 4.0.17 distribution straight from mysql.com, and this indeed solves all the problems, so we shouldn't have any downtime any more!)

For members only, there is now an image upload capability! You are allowed to attach images to the bottom of each post. Currently, you can attach one per post, but the next version of the forum software will allow multiple images per post.

Enjoy!
