That's good news, shame I didn't see that but thats ok - an offer is an offer :-) > If we think along these lines, my plan would be the following: > > 1) Thursday evening (16-22 UTC), I wil combine the single forum databases > into the EN database.

How about you convert them to Inno before you merge them, so you can do the slow work by off-lining one language at a time - and the merge done later. > 3) Friday afternoon (15 UTC, depending on pctony), we can take the forums > down for approx 2hours to move the databases. I won't be around, I'll be at the hospital with my boy, and I'm not sure what time we will be back. So don't want to commit to it then. If we can do late Thursday PM that would be better, say 1700 UTC onwards. > In order to finalize the database changes Thursday and move friday, we need > someone with access to all forums to help with the test. > > Could this be an acceptable plan ? The time is needed, but if preferred I > can do it friday or saturday evening instead (depending on pctony). Bring it closer, otherwise for me it will have to be next week - and I am not confident that we can last that long right now. We probably could, but I am not confident - so I'd rather do a controlled move on a more aggressive timeline than have to deal with a potential hazardous failure unexpectedly. > > rgds > jan I. > > Cheers, Tony ---------------------------------- Tony Stevenson t...@pc-tony.com pct...@apache.org http://www.pc-tony.com GPG - 1024D/51047D66 ---------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
