Many of you have probably received this message from other lists, but for those who don't know about the upcoming scheduled Rootsweb outage, please see more information below. I would expect this outage to affect mailing lists, web sites, and message boards at Rootsweb. Some posts I have seen in response to this indicate that the downtime may be up to 24 hours, but I do not know for sure what it will be. --Melissa > >Subject: ANNOUNCEMENT: Scheduled Downtime >Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2001 19:05:15 -0600 >To: [email protected] > > >Starting at 8 a.m. PST Friday, February 23, RootsWeb will begin a planned >temporary downtime for maintenance of its servers and hosting process.
