[forums-announce] Forums downtime Oct 8th 1330 - 1430UTC

Folks --

We're going to be doing some database maintenance tomorrow on the forums to see if we can improve performance a bit. Consequently, the forums will be inaccessible for ~1 hour or so, depending on how long it takes to rebuild an index on the search wordmatch table.

update: the maintenance finished faster than expected, so things should be back to normal now. If you notice any problems or abnormalities, please post them in the feedback forum.
