		<title>Update: server move</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sorry, folks: we&#8217;re moving. Our upstream hosts (the geeks who farm the servers) have not been able to fix the rather wonky DNS issues that have been causing roving blackouts to surfers trying to access your sites, and yesterday they pulled the CPanel backup module from my despairing grasp. Can&#8217;t do backups&#8230; what? Since this [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fluctuating access problems</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m seeing an intermittent problem with accessing our sites through HTTP. I&#8217;m tracing the issue, but it looks like a DNS problem. (The server seems fine, the sites are still there, but the signpost looks like it&#8217;s out of kilter at times.) I&#8217;m on it. Update: This is an odd error seemingly with the Telus [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our server is doing that thing that techs like to call &#8220;experiencing downtime&#8221;. I&#8217;m experiencing annoyance, and passing it right along to the folks who mind the servers like as if they&#8217;re little cows in a field. Watch this space.]]></description>

		<title>Server down &#8212; we&#8217;re working on it!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our server fainted some time this morning. I became aware of it at 10am, and have been in contact with the folks who manage the hardware. They&#8217;re tightening bolts, greasing cogs, and heaving wrenches around as I type. No, wait, that greasing cogs thing was a what machine techs did a century ago. They&#8217;re, instead, [...]]]></description>
