UPDATE: we're planning to move to the new servers Monday between 2pm and 4pm PST. I'll put up a system message on the main site the day before.

@grp: No, we're not moving to 2.0 yet. Just being moved to different physical machines.

I actually just got this update:

Really sorry for the inconvenience; we won't be able to do the move tomorrow.
Our sysadmins have determined that the new servers might not have sufficient capacity to adequately serve MO, so we'll need to upgrade the machines first.
I'll let you know as soon as I have a new ETA on the move.

From you, I hope that it means just what it says. However, from others it might be code for "Surprise! Welcome to 2.0!" I am confident you wouldn't do that to us, but a word of reassurance would be very comforting to the more nervous among us.

MO will be moving to a new server tomorrow afternoon. This should incur no more than 10-20 minutes of downtime.

edit: Original post above, but it actually looks like the move to new servers will be delayed.
