Hi all - just a quick FYI in case you attempt to access the Foundations two official blogs,
We've had to shut both blogs down (they live in the same server space) to investigate some tech/patch issues with wordpress. We're hoping to have things back up by the weekend or early next week at the latest.
Wanted to let people know in case you were trying to access and were having troubles.
Thanks!
