Good California morning, everyone! I will be taking down this instance at 18:00 UTC, or 11:00 PST, today. That's in TWO HOURS! If you have any remaining etherpad documents on the labs instance, now is most definitely the time to put them on our shiny new production server at https://etherpad.wikimedia.org. If you don't, they will no longer be accessible through the web interface - you'll need to contact myself or someone else on the project to pull them out of the database. It's been quite a ride, thanks for coming along, and thanks so much to the ops team for their hard work getting the new instance up.
