Upcoming Maintenance Downtimes

[Unknown98]

I'll have to add that to my list to look into :/

Was just informed by our host that there will be several upcoming maintenance periods to address some vulnerabilities.

"A number of serious security vulnerabilities affecting multiple CPU architectures were recently disclosed by Google’s Project Zero team as outlined in our blog post[1]. In order to address these vulnerabilities, the host on which your Linode resides will need to undergo maintenance. This is the first of several separate maintenances that will be necessary to fully mitigate these vulnerabilities."

I don't have a time period yet but if the site is unavailable this is probably why.

The timetable for this maintenance was just announced. Server maintenance will occur January 17 at 8AM GMT. A two-hour window has been set aside for the maintenance but it will likely take less than that.
