Thanks Brian for the head up. But please dont give you such short time latitude to make the switch.
I used to do service maintenance in security system ( access control and camera system integration was my principal stuff) And when upgrading a site I always gave me 4 time the usual time I needed. Let say I planned to do the work in 15 minute, I would always advice the user that it would take 1 hours, maybe a bit more..
My user where always happy to see the job done in much less time or just in time when something went wrong ;-)
this help a lot to manage the expectation of the user.
There is notthing more exasperating to manage then a mid executive asking, is it done yet? when you work on a technical problem.

UCSD is swapping out some networking equipment and amprgw (aka gw.ampr.org, 44.0.0.1) will be unreachable for a while starting around 7pm Pacific time Thursday (tomorrow). It should take only a few minutes, but as both the connection and configuration have to be transferred to the new equipment, there is always the possibility that it will take longer or something else may go wrong. - Brian
