DMOZ Planned System Outage Notification, Round 2

Over the next three days, we will be making additional upgrades to DMOZ. As with the previous planned outage, we will be taking some parts of the directory offline so that we can complete the work. While the directory content will stay on view throughout the process, all directory submissions will be disabled from Tuesday, July 20 - Thursday, July 22, 2010. The following functionality will be unavailable throughout this planned outage:

• Site suggestions,
• Site update requests,
• New editor applications,
• Editor & staff feedback, and
• Public abuse reports.

Neither the Resource Zone public forums nor the DMOZ editor forums will be impacted by this outage. We will provide any additional updates about this outage to the public via this blog.

Thank you again for your patience as we work to upgrade the DMOZ directory!

Just to update: The update team encountered problems with the upgrade and are in the process of rolling back the updates. While they are doing that, you may still encounter issues with the public forms or editor-side pages.
