We’ll give the upgrade new try tomorrow. I’ve had some good input from admins of other instances, which are also gonna help troubleshoot during/after the upgrade.

Also there are newer RC versions with fixed issues.

Be aware that might we need to rollback again, posts posted between the upgrade and the rollback will be lost.

We see a huge rise in new user signups (duh… it’s July 1st) which also stresses the server. Let’s hope the improvements in 0.18.1 will also help with that.

    The userbase is still a long way away from critical mass, but it might have grown enough to get the snowball rolling. Especially if the power users relied on their 3rd party apps, they might be more inclined to move over, and those were disproportionately responsible for producing the content.
