I ran into some pretty big complications while I was finishing up the new forum, resulting in loss of a lot of work. I'm going to have to go back and re-do a lot of things and I also want to wait and see if they release their current beta version of the forum code to "production" status.
So, the bad news is we're going back to the old slow forum for now. The good news is we've been testing and know how nice and fast the new forum will be, so there is something to look forward to!
I'll keep you updated. For now, I've reopened all the sections on this forum.
