Due to some confusion about posting permissions, we've decided to keep the
logo contest open for two more weeks.  We've got a number of really good ones,
but your chance at fame is not yet past.

We'll close the contest on Monday March 15 at 2200 UTC (don't forget DST in
the US starts on March 14).

Just to clarify: if you still want to submit a logo, you need to create an
account on wiki.list.org and send us (mailman-cabal <at> python.org) your wiki user
id so that we can enable your write access.  Sorry for the convolution but
that's the price of spam reduction.

Cheers,

Wiki scheduled downtime

Just a quick announcement to let you know that wiki.list.org is scheduled to
be off-line for upgrades starting at 2200 UTC on Friday, March 19, 2010.
Total downtime is not known, as they will be upgrading us to the latest
version and it's a big upgrade.

Cheers,

Temporary wiki.list.org outage

Hi folks,

wiki.list.org may experience some short-term outages as the fine folks at
Contegix attempt to upgrade our instance.  They originally tried to do it over
the weekend, but had some troubles and now want to attempt it again during
weekday hours.

Thanks,
-Barry

Our hosting provider thinks they may have solved the problems we were having
with the last upgrade, so they are going to try again.  Currently scheduled
for 2000 UTC today, please expect outages of up to one hour.
