The Forum has been "off-line" due to a major power outage in our part of SE Qld from about 6PM Sunday night (11 Feb 18) until very late last night.
Unfortunately the UPS which powers the forum ran 'out of juice' after about 30 minutes (about 6.30PM, Sunday) but a side effect was that the UPS batteries appear to have been damaged by the discharge and the power to the server remained off even when mains power finally returned.
The server was finally re-powered on this afternoon (13th) about 5PM but is not on a UPS until that can be repaired.
Apologies for the outage but blame Mother Nature....
