Picayune will be “dark” on Memorial Day for maintenance

I figure that reading Web pages will be one of the last things anyone will be doing over Memorial Day weekend. What would be a better time to take the server offline, back it up and finally update it? Zocalo (the Mini’s name) hasn’t been backed up in almost a year, practically playing with fire in my line of work. The difference is this though, I have a back up of the stream and I know how to restore the Weblog piecemeal after a thunderstorm took it out in 2005. The back up will also give me a copy to experiment with if I choose to put 10.5 Server on it (upgrade). See how much of it will be “destroyed” in the process. I know the QTSS element will be okay and then ACLs will be permanently turned on. The real dealmaker (or -breaker) depends upon what happens to the Weblog since the new Wiki-Blog-Calendar stuff doesn’t have the same layout or customizations.

Just a heads up since I receive so much e-mail and many calls when my site is offline.
