[ensembl-announce] urgent maintenance on ensembl systems Tue 16th Oct

[Stephen Trevanion]

Apologies for the very short notice, but all Sanger located Ensembl 
based websites (www.ensembl.org, pre.ensembl.org, archives and 
vega.sanger.ac.uk) will be unavailable for about an hour on Tue, 16th 
Oct from 0800 GMT to allow urgent maintenance on underlying systems. 
Ensembl mirrors (useast.ensembl.org, uswest.ensembl.org and 
asia.ensembl.org) will continue to operate, but user logins from these 
will not be available during this period. There will also be a 
disruption tomorrow to BLAST/BLAT for about an hour between 1500 and 
1600 GMT - this will affect both the main Ensembl Site and the mirrors.

Apologies for the inconvenience this may cause.

Regards,

Steve
