   All,
   
   The Saxperience Community will be temporarily closed tonight at 10pm, for approx. 30 - 120 minutes. This downtime is required to incorporate essential upgrades in advance of the Saxperience Server Upgrade, which is scheduled for early next week.
   
   I'm sorry for this inconvenience, but I'm sure you'll agree it's important to keep taking things forward with both the software and hardware used for Saxperience.
   
   Simo

    The actual upgrades may only take a couple of minutes. Most of the time and effort goes into planning and preparation to ensure that everything runs smoothly and no data is lost. We've moved servers, moved countries and even switched programming languages in the past without losing anything. On top of that we actually make four separate off-site backups each day.
    
    Don't worry, Saxperience is in safe hands
