MXNA Upgrade: In Progress ( New Hardware and CF8 )

I am sure most are aware of the downtime on MXNA this week. Since 2008 began, we have been seeing ever increasing downtime on the site as the demand on the server has skyrocketed. This week the server was taken offline and is being replaced by a pair of servers and upgraded to ColdFusion 8. The new server software Apache/CF/MYSQL is being configured as I write this and it should hopefully be up and running early next week if not sooner.

For me MNXA is such a vital source of information. It's downtime has been very frustrating as I really enjoy seeing what the developer community is up to.

Hopefully with the new servers and software, MXNA downtime will be a thing of the past!

Cheers,

Ted :)

I know what you mean. I've listed a few alternatives in this post if you desperately need "a fix" :D

This is great news! Is there any truth to the rumor that it will use the 64-bit version of CF8?

Any updates about MXNA returning? It's getting close to a week of downtime soon.

And AllYourFlexAreBelongToUs and Feed-Squirrel both follow only a handful of feeds that MXNA did.

So what I wanted to say is that... I, miss, MXNA.
