We are currently working to get all of the important data imported back into the site. These changes, however important they are, cannot be accomplished overnight. They take time! TiMax's departure from the team was both sudden and unexpected, as were the transfer of all the domains to a new server. Had we had our choice in the matter we would have liked to have prepared the new site and had it ready for this, but we can not change what has happened and have to work with what we were givin. In time the site will have a new theme along with all of the old documentation, FAQ"s, and subjects. It has been discussed of setting up a site for all the archive material, and if this is this is indeed possible we will take actions to do so. As far as the forum goes Zoom has said that this is impossible to do "based on the user tables." This does not mean that converting the data is impossible it just means that his first approach did not work. In his last sentence he even says that after he gets some sleep he will "finish the job." If even the worst happens and he cannot migrate the data, the forum postings are still there and we can create a searchable FAQ with all of the questions that have been answered on the forums. In the meantime please cut him some slack, Zoom has been working very hard under much pressure to get this done. He is just one man. I understand that this has been a setback and an inconvenience to everyone, but we are working as hard as we can and soon we will be back on track. As far as the developer meeting goes I understand if you cannot attend. We will have a log of the meeting available, and there will be plenty of meetings in the near future for you to attend. The chat room itself is available 24/7 not just for meetings, so if you want to stop by and chat you can. I think everyone should try to be a little more open and understanding about this whole situation. These are all large tasks that must be accomplished and it seems you all expect them to be done already, however, this is not a race. Taking the fastest method is not always the best, as such we will take our time to do things right and when we are finished I think you will agree that the choices that were made were indeed the right ones.
