On January 1st, we moved ActionScript.com from a PHP content management system to a deployment of DotNetNuke. The system has worked out well for us, but our host, however, has not. As we look to extend the website, it's become completely clear that it's time to get off of a shared hosting solution and grow up into a fully dedicated managed hosting solution.

We're hoping to get everything in place this week, so that we can start propogating the DNS this weekend. There won't be any downtime on the site (hopefully), but once we start the migration, we'll either have to shut down comments and the forum or put a notice up that any posts will be lost as the DNS change takes effect.

In the end, you should notice a major change in the performance of the ActionScript.com website. HeavyFlash is already hosted on this server and it's been performing wonderfully (even when dealing with the digg effect)
