Over the past 12 months, the Engineering team has been working on
improving the SqueezeNetwork server infrastructure. The goals of these
improvements are to:

1. Allow more Squeezeboxes to be connected simultaneously,
2. Improve the reliability of Squeezebox connectivity and
SqueezeNetwork,
3. Speed up interaction between Squeezeboxes and SqueezeNetwork, and
4. Make it easier to setup your SqueezeNetwork services.

The initial development and testing of these changes are now complete,
and we will need to interrupt service for 1 hour on Thursday February
28, 2008 to implement these changes.

The outage is planned for between 6 am and 7 am California time. During
that time, we will be moving all of your current SqueezeNetwork settings
to our new SqueezeNetwork servers.

This outage will primarily affect users which have Squeezeboxes
connected only to SqueezeNetwork. It may also affect users connected
primarily to Slimserver/SqueezeCenter that are relying on
SqueezeNetwork-provided features.

Please note that if you are a SqueezeNetwork-only user and use the
Squeezebox’s alarm clock feature to wake you up during the outage that
IT WILL NOT WORK.

Here’s the timeline we are planning to follow:

THURSDAY FEB 28

4-6 am California time

- Small chance of users experiencing intermittent connection to
www.squeezenetwork.com for SN-only users.

6 am

- Squeezeboxes will have "down for maintenance" on the display, and may
go dark during part of this hour.
- Entire database of old SN user settings copied to new SN.
- Move www.squeezenetwork.com URL to point to new servers.

7 am

- www.squeezenetwork.com comes back up on new servers

After this outage is over, your Squeezebox should function normally
again. If this is not true, then please post your issues in the
forums.

Thank you for your patience while we work on improving the Squeezebox
experience.
