EZBoard server failure

Jeff, I've just gotten word that a board on which I've participated for years has gone down due to an EZboard server failure. The phrasing the moderator there used in her email was "Several servers are down at ezboard and have been for quite a while."<br><br>This is independent of the concerns I raised with you in the email last night. Or maybe it's not independent, which would be quite worrying.<br><br>Do we have a couple of up-to-date copies of this board and its archives in separate places, in case we have another EZboard "incident" like that one that destroyed so much last year? <p></p><i></i>

I'm archiving the site right now. (Been at it 20 hours and counting.) <p></p><i></i>

Jeff, do you still have plans to switch to a phpBB forum? The benefits for this kind of group are enormous.. <p>____________________<br>Some are born to sweet delight, some are born to endless night.</p><i></i>

Absolutely. I'm trying to get my new site up early Sept, which will host my blog and the forum. (As well as other new content, I hope.) <p></p><i></i>
