Please give me a UTC time, where you can test (today/tomorrow), then I do the changes just before that time. If it works with these 2 forums, I feel more secure with the rest, and maybe Ricardo can do a check on them since he is in the same TZ. > And what do you mean by "combining short forum databases into the EN > databases"?

Remark, this is not a problem because all tables (in use) have the naming standard: phpbb_<forum>_<table> if you look e.g. in IT, you will see | phpbb_it_sessions_keys | | phpbb_it_sitelist | | phpbb_it_smilies | There are 2 databases I dont understand at the moment: | ps_helper | | test | any ideas ? > > > 2) Friday morning (8-11 UTC) I will convert tables.

I would really apriciate your help with the first 2 forums, to make a more thorough test. And then hope that ricardo could do a smoke test on the others. This is of course a service that infra provides so if you want it postponed, we will have to find a way. > > And also, please add the date (10/24, 10/25).
