We flipped the switch on Saturday afternoon, so most DNS records should have propagated by now. We know from experience that things seldom go as planned, so we do expect some hiccups over the next couple of weeks.

We've made nearly five hundred entries  in our index.php file, so any static link pointing to our old site will be forwarded to the proper page on our new site. If you find any omission, I'd appreciate a heads up so we can add the link.
