  I just wanted to give a heads-up that I may be doing some maintenance on the Lottery Post servers this evening that would cause some downtime.

  During the downtime the site would be completely unavailable.  It might last only about 10 minutes, but perhaps up to an hour in a worst-case scenario.

  I will try to hold off on starting the maintenance until after 10:00 PM Eastern Time.  I would do it in the middle of the night, but I've been pretty exhausted with work, so I'm not sure I can hold off that long.  After all, I do have to remain awake for it. 

  I'll post a follow-up message here if I decide not to do it tonight -- or if it does happen then I'll post when it's finished.

  Well, that went super-quick and super-smooth.  The maintenance took a total of 6 minutes, which is better than I could have hoped.  A lot of planning always helps!
