Maintenance & upgrade
Not only the house has had it’s maintenance, WordPress has announced the immediate availability of WP2.6!
I’ve upgraded, after using the Beta’s and RC’s for the last couple of days, to this new version, and all seems well.
There are no significant changes for the user (you dear readers), yet there are several nice modifications to the backend. I’m a happy camper. 
Together with the upgrade of the blog, several plugins have been upgraded over a few months, all without noticeable effect for you. Happy reading!
Relocation
Recetly, you might have exerienced some sluggishness and a hickup.
Timmo: sorry I lost your reply!
Due to a migration of this site to a new and improved install of the server, with more secure versions of PHP and mySQL, some mishaps occurred with the old system. A DB had to be put back from the backup, and thus I lost a few things. This new install should perform better, and have less future issues due to the ’hardened’ environment.
So, here we are. New day, new month, new install. Enjoy!
Upgrades & improvements
For whoever is blogging with WordPress, the last few days must have been filled with newsposts, updates and announcements about the all new WordPress 2.5
I too have upgraded (since about 20 minutes ago) and everything seems to run fine. If you do find some peculiar behavior anywhere on this site, please feel free to notify me, by emailing me. I’m reachable at: <my given name>@<my given name><my surname>.nl
Oh well, you would have probably figured that one out by yourself I guess.
Down due to maintenance
Saturday, and the bigger part of yesterday, my blog fell out of the air.
It was planned maintenance, and I would like to apologize for the fact it happened unannounced.
On the bright side: it brought some new hardware to the server, and it now runs a newly configured install of the OS. You’ll probably don’t notice it, but the box now is about 10% faster than before.
Update: For the geeks.
Old: 4x 320GB SATA in Raid10
New: 4x 300GB SAS in Raid0 + 750GB backup USB disk.
Besides the new hardware, the server has been equipped with a brand new VMWare ESX 3.5 install, and has the new Plesk 8.3 with PHP5 on Ubuntu 7.10 as the webserver.
Shiny! 
Why the USB backup? I don’t know, I didn’t install it.
