Thank you very much for this timely word of warning, Dave.

Barely 20 minutes after you posted your warning, I broadcasted it to the 
developers at my workplace, and our sysadmins jumped on it and had things fixed 
up before the transition, so our servers didn't go down.

It seems some other big sites weren't so lucky however.

So you saved us some trouble.
