We have completed migrating to AWS and you are seeing this from the new servers. We're tried to find and crack down on all problems due to migration, but if you find anything missing, please check the bug base and report it there. There are a few remaining issues:
- Incoming email does not work. Mail sent to an @swcombine.com email address will be silently dropped until you see another announcement indicating that mail is working again.
- Outgoing email DOES work, but it is not being routed through Amazon SES yet. Until our request for an increased mail quota is accepted (probably on Monday), we cannot use Amazon's verified email system to ensure delivery. In particular this means you might see emails in spam or junk folders until this is updated.

We expect the server to be stable, but during the next 36 hours or so please bear with us in case there is anything that requires a restart (such as moving to a larger server instance due to unexpected load). If there are any configuration issues that need to be updated, you may see a temporary outage of less than one minute whenever that happens. We appreciate everyone's patience during this move and we hope that the new servers provide the stability, performance, and scaling that we need.

There has also been a minor sync to address some of the problems we found during the migration. One bug was also fixed, captured bandit droids will no longer de-spawn. Shortly we'll have another update with the details of what we can do now that we are using AWS and a development roadmap for Year 17 (2016).
