Here's a snipped to expect with the forum update that should happen overnight. There may be an outage here and there and probably mostly overnight.

As a reminder, Flando and I will be driving to North Dakota tomorrow so I am requesting a little patience as this kind of unfolds while we may be unavailable. Thanks
