The release is finished successfully.

What were the changes that were made. Just curious.

I wasn't going to bore you with it, but here goes. We are upgrading our application from the Rails 2.3 framework, to the Rails 3 framework. This will make it easier to develop going forward, and it will make the app clearer for new developers who extend it. However, it is a complex project that involves more than 2000 changes to the code, new libraries, and new potential performance problems. We can't just release it and see what happens. We need extensive testing, and even in-use beta testing. So, we came up with a plan to converge the data structure and features in our Rails 2.3 app (the current release "3.9.9") and then new Rails 3 app (the next release "4.0"). With today's release, we can run them both at the same time on the same database. So, we can mix in the Rails 3 version (currently running at http://p.assembla.com ) and see how it performs at that beta test URL. We released that converged set today. 
 
We also started moving repositories to the new dedicated datacenter. So, starting today, some of our repositories are being served from the new, faster, datacenter in Atlanta where each commit is replicated in real-time to a triple-redundant set of servers, failover servers, and a disaster recover cluster. The rest of the repositories and the app will be migrated incrementally as the data is copied.
