Tonight, hopefully, around 9 PM Pacific Time.

Edit: these boards will be locked before 9 PM, probably around 7:30 PM Pacific.

Are we upgrading to new forum software, or just switching servers?

Just switching servers first -- haven't had time to test out any new software yet.

SMF 2.0?

We'll likely stay with SMF unless somebody knows of something that's better that's free and can import SMF data.

As for 2.0 vs 2.1 we may go straight to 2.1 depending on how stable it is as it does have some features some people may like like alerts for mentions.

Edit: 2.1 features:
