The replacement drive is scheduled to arrive on Friday, so I plan to 
power down abbot to swap drives sometime between 7:30 and 9:30 a.m. 
(PDT) this Saturday, September 7.

Barring unforeseen problems, abbot should be offline for roughly 20 to 
30 minutes.

Obviously, hackage will be unavailable during that time.

I'll let this list know ASAP if my plans change or when the swap is 
completed.
