Another repost from FM Taskforce member Carol Collins on the
TG-Fiction Yahoo Group.
As was stated last Sunday, the old files from the defunct server
were salvaged
and were transferred to the new machine. Since the old server was
in another
country and no Task Force member could go to extract the files
personally,
retrieving the files was no small endeavor.
Now, the several different software packages installed on the new
machine have
to be massaged to make them work together seamlessly. Talea has put
in many
hours over the last week to debug the system.
Mindy has put in the request to have the www.fictionmania.com url
point to the
new server. If everything went through properly, you should be able
to access
the opening test page within a couple of days. If it does not get
moved to the
new server by the end of the week, we will have to wait a couple of
weeks for
Mindy to return from a business trip to straigthen out that
problem.
Moving slower than anyone likes (especially the Task Force
members), but, we are
making progress.
FMForever,
Carol Collins

Is there a way of excluding categories in the search? If not, is it
possible for you to implement that?
It was already implemented, very few people use it.
You can add the limiter "-" at the beginning of your keyword to
exclude it from the search.
-category:"name of category" -tag:"a tag" -author:"an author I
dislike"

Its kind of weird that no one really even has a 'kind of a guess'
when it will be back!

Another re-post of Carol Collins note as posted at the TG-Fiction
Yahoo Group:
Hello again,
Talea has stated that there is mainly just one software problem
holding up the
completion of the new fm server. When that is taken care of, (if
you have ever
worked with software you know you can not predict accurately when
it will be
complete), fm should be returned to us. Talea has been in contact
with the
software company and they are working on the problem.
Of course, with any new system, there will be some glitches. Let us
all hope
that they are minor and easily fixed.
FMForever,
Carol

I will only belive it's the end of this soap opera when the bride
says "I do"...
(Brazilian joke, you don't have to laugh).

guest@199, English has a similar expression: "The opera ain't over
til the fat lady sings."
