Not Panicking Yet

But the closer we get to the handover, the more restless people are. Plans are made, things prepared, and there's always the question: did we think of everything? What if we forgot x? Will the community know where to go? Will they manage to get from server A to server B? How can we ensure they do? How do we contact them during downtime? And so on. Once I know, I'll let you know here, of course - if I still get the chance to do so, that is. After all, I'll need a bit of advance warning, and that means somebody will need to know when day X will actually be. Rest assured, there's a whole team doing everything they can to make transition as smooth as possible, and that involves giving out info as soon as it is available, too. So relax, lean back, and enjoy this issue of your favourite news magazine.
