site update. Mahon will surely give more details later. I think he's still working on it.

Hi there,

I will write more later but briefly speaking it was like this:
In order to perform some changes on the site I needed to upgrade the server, so I asked the hosting company to do it.
To avoid any loss of data I created backups and suspended the domain.
Unfortunately because of problems on the hosting company's end it took like more than 2 days instead of several hours to upgrade.
Then I had to restore the site from backups, and am still working on it. Then waited for DNS propagation.
The forum is fully operational now and the site's up too. Still working on some things like alternative urls, etc.

I'll check if things are OK with the DNSes in a few hours, and until then you can still experience some glitches.
I'll keep you informed.
