I am not entirely sure when the actual move will happen, but it will be this week (Jan 31-Feb 5). It will mean that E2 will probably be unavailable for several hours as we copy data over from the site to our new cluster.
As with any change of platform, it is likely that the move will result in numerous bugs and/or service degradation until all of the kinks get worked out. Please be patient and communicate with me at e2webmaster at everything two dot com.
Update 02-01: our last bits of infrastructure should be in this afternoon. We will probably not flip the switch right away, but be prepared for some downtime. We may also do a "dry run" on the new servers, redirecting traffic temporarily, just to see what tuning needs to be done.
Update 02-02: All the pieces are in place, d-day is tomorrow afternoonish. Expect a few hours of blackout.
Update 02-03/4: We is moved.
Update 02-9: Still dealing with a number of stability issues. Will be working on this and other bugs it over the weekend.
Here's what's still broke (for my references):
