I wish someone could tell me how to get that post back. I use to find it with google search Tony and May.
Anyone one from back then would know May, she was the on-site pharmacy around Rick’s after dark.
Went back in 2010 stayed a Tensing Pen that was as much of a culture stock and was the first trip in 74.
Lane,

The previous board was discontinued in April 2011. It was being run on software that was designed by a company that was no longer in business. We were upgrading the server at the same time and the existing software would not work on the new hosting software/hardware server combination.

There were also unresolvable security issues because of no longer being in business which added unacceptable vulnerabilities that would eventually comprise user data. In addition, there were custom coding added to the board software using non-standard formats, all which made transferring the old board software or just the data impossible.

In simple terms, the old board software and data were just too old to be of any use.

I was not involved in the old board software choice, implementation or non-standard modifications. Being intimately involved in the current board software, seamless upgrades has always been part of the decisions. There have been 4 major upgrades in the past decade with no data loss. Future upgrades will not have any data loss issues either.
