AVR-Chat

I've gotten no response from avrfreaks.net for the last day or so.
Anyone else seeing this?

Hope they weren't hacked again.

Perhaps they are doing the announced change over to
a new forum software...or they were hacked again :-)

Sadly my first thought is, "So what's new?"  :-(

avrfreaks.net goes down almost as often as a new Microsoft Windows  
virus/worm is discovered. It ceases to be "new" to qualify as "news".

Because of the forum software being used. They have
announced that they are looking at other forum software
and perhaps they may be in the middle of a change...or not :-)
