Seems like the web host I used for edeb8 has disappeared: http://techday.com/telco-review/news/what-you-need-to-know-about-247-hosting-nz/184984/

As such I will shortly be working to move the website to a new host. I am also making full daily backups of the edeb8 database. This process may mean that edeb8 goes offline on occasion. For the next few days, please ensure you keep local backups of debate arguments and such. I should be able to rescue this situation without too much issue on your side of things but it's worth warning you that if the site should suddenly go offline, I might have to revert the site database to something 24+ hours old, which might cause you to lose arguments you've made recently and such.

Sorry about this and I'll keep you all informed. Everything should work out fine though.

Move should *fingers crossed* be completed successfully tomorrow. Then we're safe.

admin: OK, apparently not. Yet another developer couldn't understand my code and neglected to tell me this until just now. Oh well, we'll try again tomorrow.
