Raid Planner currently offline

Due to a borked upgrade - I'm in the process of restoring from last night's backup so anything that went on today please add in again - the planner itself will be available again early in the morning.

UPDATE - currently running database restore, which claims it should take about 20 mins. DB dump was from 6.30 this morning. Apologies again - we will be making the move to WoWRaidManager 4.0 shortly, but it doesn't look like a clean upgrade is going to happen so it'll likely be a new planner and then I'll try to import as much historical data as possible.

Moving on from this we'll be moving from the current raid planner to a new planner in the not too distant future - same software, but updated and with a twist: login will be integrated with the forum so you don't need to remember potentially 2 seperate logins.

There are 2 downsides to this - firstly all characters will need to be recreated on the planner, and secondly anyone needing to use the planner will need a forum account (not sure without checking if people from the Fuzzies etc have forum accounts, but it's a breeze to setup anyways.).

As disk space on the server is getting tight for the forum I'll be trimming the fat too, so the roster will be going bye byes, and the old raid planner will also go once the new one is up and running. There's no real benefit to keeping either, so hopefully this won't cause anyone any heartache.
