Just a heads-up, the site will be down sometime between today and tomorrow in preparation of moving the site to a new server.  I've put through the change on the domain name now, but with said changes I can only have a vague idea of when the switchover will actually be active.

Until that happens, the site will remain live, and consequently I cannot move the database.  So whenever I see that the switch has happened, I'll move over the database and bring it live.  This could be around 15 minutes if I catch it immediately, or several hours if it's at a weird time or overnight.

Combine this and the new updates I hope to have out by the end of the month, and we should be looking at a much improved experience.

Whoops, mismatched files for the niceditor.  All better.  Assuming that was what you meant.
