Due to scheduled system upgrades, we expect a brief downtime of three of the DEMO Testbed services, on Tue, Sep. Oct. 8, at 1 p.m. CEST (UTC+2). You will be unable to access the corresponding web pages for a few minutes. Since these are demo servers, the maintenance will have no impact on real-life processes of the EWP network.

Attention!   Change of schedule: instead of facing a continuous 36+ hr downtime, we opted to transfer the systems to a new platform, which will result in a reduced downtime.   The transfer will take place on Thursday, 2024-08-08, sometime after 4 p.m. CEST (UTC+2).   Apologies for the late notification.  On the bright side, the expected downtime is expected to be about 1 hour.
