Hello
On September 1st, all the traffic from the wikis will be switched to the
secondary data center (like we did in 2018). It means that *all wikis will
be on read-only mode on September 1st around 14:00 UTC*, for up to 60
minutes.
A message to inform our communities has been written, to be sent to wikis:

More information will be published in Tech News and will also be posted on
individual wikis on week 35 (starting Monday 24). Please inform your
community about this event!
Thank you for your help,
Benoît
