DailyKos will go down for scheduled maintenance tomorrow, Wednesday at 6am EST. The work could take as long as one hour, but we're hoping for something closer to 15 minutes.
For the curious, we'll be doing two things. The first is a database upgrade that includes security and performance patches- your basic database care and feeding type stuff. The second is a minor improvement to the servers which will be an automated first response to issues such as memory ballooning.
Thanks for your patience. We'll be updating status.dailykos.com throughout the process for those interested in following along.
