Dev Blog: Upgrade Step One

After many months planning, we are now slowly progressing with the rollout of the 2009 update of the site. Last night the first step was taken, which basically involved upgrading the site core, and all additional modules, and adding in a couple of new ones we hope will enhance your experience this year. Unfortunately in the process somehow it has made the menu display incorrectly in every version of Internet Explorer we can find. We have been unable to find an easy fix for this, and considering we're already working on a new theme for 2009, we will be unlikely to fix this. So we ask that you bear with us while we continue our work, and if it really bothers you, switch to Mozilla Firefox. We think you'll like that better anyway!

For the technically minded out there, we have upgraded our Drupal core to the latest evolution of the version 5 core, 5.14. In addition, all other modules have been updated. This is being done to prepare for our planned migration to version 6 in 2009. Because Drupal 5 themes are incompatible with Drupal 6, a new theme has already begun being developed, which we hope will further improve the site.

An overview of other new features and enhancements will be provided as soon as we complete testing and development.
