etherpad.wikimedia.org downtime due to upgrade
etherpad-lite has been successfully update to version 1.2.11. The
upgrade procedure server-wise was uneventfull, however it will cause
some minor problems to existing users of the service. Specifically
CSS/JS elements of the page have changed and need to be re-downloaded
by the browser, however due to browser caching this does not happen
automatically. Users of the old version will have to FORCE REFRESH
their browser when accessing the service for the first time. Otherwise
they will get garbled versions of the user interface. Pad contents
will be intact, however a brief message suggesting the user does not
have permission to access a pad might show up. That message is
inaccurate and is a by-product of the garbled UI.
