[tahoe-dev] allmydata.com grid full

My questions exactly, David.

It seems the tweeter feed was chosen to communicate status to customers, but
last message is more puzzling to me then anything, considering the second
week long (and counting) outage in very short time:

"We are going to be upgrading our storage servers over the next few weeks
and are also planning to release statistics about the grid health.4:54 PM
Nov 5th <http://twitter.com/Allmydata/status/5465542068> from web"

???? So all is great then? No issues whatsoever, just upgrading servers and
providing new functionality?

Or should this be interpreted as "It will take us few weeks to recover
service"?

Not questions I should be asking about service which I entrusted with my
data.
