Another piece to the puzzle seems (if I understand) to be that the BCTS software is being moved into (in computer software/hardware terms) a larger 'space'. (A bigger "Virtual Machine" for the geeks.)

The results of the hacks were genuine damage.

An analogy for the software move would be having (in your absence) all your well meaning friends box up all your possessions, and leave the boxes in your bigger home. Then, you have to figure out what's in the boxes, where stuff goes, and "where did they put ... ?"

At our end, we get to be patient with (for me, daily) random log-offs. Look to the right sidebar. If you see "Home, Add a story, ... Create a Story, ..", you are logged in. Oh, and 'cosmetic' things, like Kudos not where we expect it.

The last two things we can do "at our end", is first, if your budget and comfort levels are willing, donate.

Then, at a minimum, close and re-open our browsers (make sure they are set to preserve open tabs).

Even better is doing a complete power-down (not the tempting and faster 'Restart') of our machines.

This will clean out "computer gunk" that has accumulated in our computer's memories. The analogy is going to our physical desks and removing all the dishes, candy wrappers, advert flyers and such, and straightening out the rest.

Hope this helps get you back to the stories!
