Reminder:  There will be some brief service interruptions, starting in about an hour.  We don't expect VMs or Toolforge tools to be affected by this.

Routine network upgrades are scheduled for Thursday which may result in 
brief WMCS service interruptions.  In particular, Wikitech and Horizon 
may stop working, and instance creation/deletion/updating may briefly fail.

The network engineers have reserved a two-hour window beginning at 16:00 
UTC (9 AM Pacific time).  Their worst case scenario is 30 minutes of 
downtime but if all goes well the interruption should not be noticeable, 
just the time to unplug a cable from one switch and plug it into another.
