Sometime late in November or early in December I made a decision to go offline. For the most part, the outcome has been predictable: I'm bored a lot, I've read a few books, and I have a lot more energy for work-related things. Anyways, that's why I haven't been around. More importantly, for those of you who depend on the circumlunar XMPP and web servers, I just received a message about a server migration. It is supposed to be seamless, but we'll see. There may be service interruptions. Please be patient. The hosting company hasn't provided me with any useful details, so I really don't know when it is going to happen. I'll check in periodically to ensure that everything is still working properly, or to try to fix it if it isn't. I will update my phlog when the transition takes place.
