Scheduled Downtime - Saturday 4th of October 2008

[StephenM]

There will be a period of downtime on Saturday the 4th of October 2008 between 13:00 UTC and 15:00 UTC approximately. During this time the website will not be available, and a placeholder page will be shown instead.

During this time we will be implementing 4 new items/features, and will be doing some initial testing to ensure that everything works correctly in the public area. We have spent significant time testing these features, but do not guarantee a bug free launch.

Just to stem some rumors, Aircraft Hotswap and Multi Route Edit wont be included in this release. We will have 2 major releases, one I have already discussed and finally one that has been suggested a number of times.

Just as a guess, I think it could be (based on the first post) two (or more?) of the following:
Private worlds (discussed by a lot)
Order books (discussed, especially by admins, at length)
Multi-class seating (suggested many times)
Leasing renewals (discussed a lot)
Numbers at the bottom of pages (suggested a lot)
Different types of leases (suggested a lot)

Of course, not all of these will be done. My best guess is private worlds. Which of these suggestions have been tested in the beta test land? That may give us some clues...
