ManNN Forums has opened for the last *couple* weeks with the alert:
"We would like to inform our readers that MacNN Forums will be unavailable for some time this weekend (probably) while..."
Not too helpful a warning. More helpful would be "unavailable for some time this weekend (May 18-19, 2002)."
Otherwise readers can't tell if you're crying "wolf" -- and whether the alert/warning has just been left there by mistake - or if the event has been postponed another week. We're left puzzled as to whether there really is a risk of downtime (and hope of enhancements!!!) within a few days of reading your warning.
Thanks! I'm looking forward to the enhancements!
