Planned Maintenance on Thursday, October 11, beginning at 14:00 UTC.

Just saw:
We will be applying an important operating system update to our servers on Thursday, October 11, beginning at 14:00 UTC. We anticipate that the work will take approximately four hours.

During some of this time, volunteers will not be able to upload or download new work, and the website will not be accessible.

Volunteers will not need to take any particular action, as your devices will automatically retry their connections after the maintenance work is completed.

Re: Planned Maintenance on Thursday, October 11, beginning at 14:00 UTC.

What about New Zealand, Tony? biggrin Curious minds want to know.
Ah, here, Time Zones in New Zealand:
"In the country's mainland, New Zealand Standard Time (NZST) is used as standard time, while New Zealand Daylight Time (NZDT) is observed during DST. The Chatham Islands use Chatham Island Standard Time (CHAST) as standard time, while Chatham Island Daylight Time (CHADT) is observed during the DST period."

The time in New Zealand is UTC+12 (Standard Time), during Daylight Saving Time it's UTC+13.

adriverhoef - ah - see from my mail why you were interested in NZ...
It is Daylight savings both here and in NZ. NZ started Sunday, 30 September 2018 and here in Aus, NSW Sunday, 7 October 2018.
Maintenance starts in approx 35 minutes time from when this append is made... hope to wake up tomorrow morning to find the work completed...

Whatever timezone you may find yourself, the work is complete and normal access is restored.

Thanks for your patience while we updated the OS.

Thanks Kevin

That was quick.
Even FAH2, with a limit of one WU per core and short deadlines, would have hardly been affected.
