  1. THR Migration in Progress

    We are at the point where THR is running on the new cluster, and I'm tweaking peformance.  This means there will be the occasional database server restart, possibly some web server tweaks, and maybe even a reboot of the entire server.

    If you run into an error this afternoon, count to 10 and try again.  Odds are the problem was very short lived.  Please note that outgoing e-mail functionality is currently broken.

    Thanks for your patience.

    2. Legal

      In the Legal Forum we try to understand what the law is (including court decisions and proposed laws), how it works, and how it applies to RKBA issues. We focus on the way things are – not the way we think they should be. However, nothing in the Legal Forum is intended to be, nor should it be considered, legal advice.
