This coming Sunday (January 19, 2014) I have scheduled an upgrade of MySQL on our server Blackice to occur at 5am Eastern.
This process should take approx 30 minutes to complete -- quite possibly less.
During this time, MySQL-driven scripts (like forums, blogs, etc.) will likely be offline. Static (html-driven) sites, email, etc will not be impacted.
If you have any questions, please feel free to post them here.
I will update this thread once complete.
Thank you,
Jason
Thanks Jason for letting us all know, great service as always :)

Reminder - this upgrade will begin in about 12 hours -- 5am Eastern tomorrow morning.
Regards,
Jason
The upgrade to MySQL was completed just before 6:30am Eastern this morning.
Everything looks good from what I'm seeing but if you have any issues, please open a ticket or email me.
Thanks!
