Upgrading

UPDATE: This will be late afternoon Central time, not early afternoon.

At some point on Wednesday 21 June, Central Time—- possibly during the early afternoon —- BlogNomic will go down for a little while.  Here’s what will happen during this time.

  1. A full backup will be made.
  2. The core EE files will be moved to the BlogNomic web space from the 75thtrombone.com space.
  3. All non-BlogNomic weblogs will be deleted from the database.
  4. BlogNomic admins will be made actual EE administrators and will gain many nice abilities.

If there is a reason that this 1) should not happen, 2) should not happen tomorrow, or 3) should happen differently than I’ve stated, now would probably be the best time to say so.

Why?  Is this because you want to separate the Blognomic blog from whatever weblog#1 is?  Or is it just to upgrade Blognomic admins’ abilities?

Mostly the latter, from what I understand.  It’s not like it’s gonna hurt anyone.

Mostly so BlogNomic admins can have the amount of control they deserve.  Plus, I’m less enamored than I once was of EE as a platform for my own site.  Gonna move my stuff to WordPress or Drupal.
