As many of you know, the performance of our forums has reached a standstill with increasing frequency, culminating this weekend.
<span style="color:blue">"Firstly, let me begin by stating the obvious."</span>
I'm glad to say that as of tomorrow we will have a dedicated developer working to improve the forum code, which is at the heart of the problem.
<span style="color:blue">"We're not sure exactly which version of the source code we're actually running with at the moment, but we've given him everything going back 5 years to look at. He says he's already got to grips with 'makefile' and will have understood 'main' by the end of this week, which sounds good. I understand there are only 638 other source files in the project."</span>
How long this work will take I can't say at this stage, but I wanted to let you know that the redevelopment work is underway finally.
<span style="color:blue">"He insisted on having a desk overlooking the Thames, and has signed up to the IPC final salary pension scheme."</span>
Thanks for your posts on this subject, I know it has been deeply frustrating but now we are moving forward. I'm sure you will feel promises have been made before but I'm confident that we will have a solution very soon.
<span style="color:blue">"...although we are a bit concerned about his recent hardware requisition. What exactly is an IBM z10 EC E64? I don't think we've ordered one of those before."</span>
While I don't know if it will be possible to return to our old search facility as a result of this work, it is something we will also be looking at.
<span style="color:blue">"He said that several source files seemed to be missing, so maybe we'll recompile and relink without them, and see what happens."</span>
Thanks for your patience, more news soon
<span style="color:blue">"He has also asked that we also upgrade our corporate network, providing a direct high-speed link to something very hush-hush known as 'redtube' that I am assured will speed up the development process by a factor of three."</span>
