Moving ICC machines to UUNET hub; scheduled downtime


Tomorrow morning (July 24) we are moving the main ICC
server to UUNET's big colocation center in Vienna, Virginia.
From there it will have 100 Mbps connectivity to UUNET's
ultra-high-speed backbone, which is excellent.

We estimate that the server will be down for about six
hours for the move, starting around 08:00.  ICC's backup
server queen.chessclub.com will stay up (it is staying
in New Jersey), and during most of the main server's
down time, when you try to connect to chessclub.com you'll
get automatically redirected to queen.chessclub.com.
Sorry, but queen does not have all of your notes, lists,
and old games, but you can play rated games there.
