we are upgrading the operating system on the server this afternoon, so there will be a (hopefully!) small amount of downtime this afternoon

Noticed I was not able to use the mobile version this afternoon.

Currently have problems uploading to the gallery.

/usr/bin/mogrify -resize ">800x800" /var/www/au_com_geocaching/docroot/gallery/images/tmp/4351312565.jpg 2>&1

This has been addressed through a workaround.
I'll guess this has to do with the OS upgrade, but the workaround work.
Please try it for me.

the server is running slowly at the moment due to some weird problem with our intrusion detection system

we are attempting to fix it

we've got it back to normal now
any speed issues you experience are now normal!

but the new super-duper server configuration should solve those issues
c@w and craigrat are busily configuring as we speak!

The daily feeds are having an issue at the moment.
We have alerted the appropriate people and await a resolution.

This means some logs will be missing for the time being and may result in some logs not making it through to the site at all.

If you are a premium member at gc.com, you can run a "my finds" query to generate all your logs and then follow the instructions here
http://wiki.geocaching.com.au/wiki/Uploading_logs

Apologies from the dev team.
