Well as we approach Jan.1 I figured I'd take a sec to keep everyone in the loop as to what to expect here at Nopistons.com in 2004. First off in the first quarter we'll have a few changes, most notibly we'll break 10,000 members.
It has come to my attention that at some point in the first quarter we will probably be making a server move. As most of you know in the past this results in minimal downtime and I expect this move to be no different. The reason for it is we will be moving to Red Hat Enterprise server and off of the current version as RH is no longer supporting the free distro. (its complicated, but more or less they aren't). I'd honestly rather not make the move and I may put it off longer then expected. At that time we'll do a slight upgrade on the server, more drive space, more ram, but nothing too exciting. I'll keep everyone updated as a plan gets formulated.
Next, in the first quarter as well we'll see a new release of the forum software, 2.0 it should be a big release with lots of little improvements. I won't jump on this one real quick either as a new portal will have to be written and I am pretty happy with wut we have now.
Of course we'll have more t-shirts and the sweatshirts will be here in the first part of January.
That's about all I can think of off hand. If you have any questions about anything here at Nopistons please feel free to use this topic to ask them. I'll be more then happy to answer what I can.
Thanks always for your support!
