Announcement: New Discourse Site to Go Live this Weekend
Update: Both the new site and site are live.
We plan to set this site ([ICODE]www.unix.com[/ICODE]) to [ICODE]read only[/ICODE] and there will be no new registrations here after this weekend.
I plan do the "final" migration on Saturday or Sunday and will put a banner up on this site to mention the site and the details.
When the cutover is made all members will need to do the "lost password" thing to create a new (stronger) password (this step has been tested). Password and PMs will not migrate to the new Discourse site.
Basically, we plan to leave this site up as a "read only" reference and all new Q&A will be on the new, modern, site.
Everyone who has tested the new site so far has commented how great it is; and how much better it is than this old, legacy site; and I'm sure everyone will love it; especially mobile users but it's great on desktop top too.
Thanks to all the moderators who tested over the past few days. Every mod who tested loved it.
