[#1]

Heads up about some work that's happening early tomorrow.
[quote author="Service Status"]Planned Community Site Database Maintenance - Friday 30th April 7.00am-7.30am
When's this work happening?
Early tomorrow morning, 30th April
What does it affect?
Access to our Community Site, Community Library and Community forums at http://community.plus.net.
How long will it take?
About five minutes.
What does the work involve?
We need to move the Community Site database to another data centre. Before we can do this, we need to failover to a secondary database.
Am I likely to notice the work?
Yes, the Community Site will be unavailable for about five minutes during the maintenance window. You may be presented with blank white screens or database errors during this time.
Is there anything else I need to know?
No.
Kind Regards,

I'm quite intrigued by this actually. Every so often when browsing the forums I get exactly what this announcement tells me to expect: blank white pages. I'd always put it down to something funny with my setup as I've not seen anyone else report it. But now I've seen it listed as a possible temporary side-effect of the maintenance, I'm not so sure.

Can't say I've ever experienced the same Be3G however you probably peruse the forums a lot more than I do!
