Forum Maintenance: 8/07 - 8/08

[chrisplough]

Hello,

There will be an outage on the OTMFAQ Forums from Friday evening (EST) until Saturday evening (EST) where we will do the following:

• Upgrade to vBulletin 3.6.8
• Install upgrades for associated modules:
  • Thank You
  • Groans
• Install the new Blog feature to the site - allowing select members to have individual blogs on the site.

We're also considering adding Instant Message and Chatroom features to the site - but since these require the purchase of an additional license, I still haven't made up my mind. Let me know what you think!

Thank you for your patience during the outage. Our goal is to improve the site and it's usability.

Thanks!
--Chris

The upgrade was successful and the forums are now back up and running!

In addition to the update - I also installed the new Blog feature, which lets select members of our community run blogs about related content -- Oracle, OTM, EBS, Transportation.

I'll post more details shortly, but if you're interested in being a blogger for the OTMFAQ site -- drop me a private message.

Thanks!
--Chris
