We have successfully upgraded to 2.6.1. Major high-level fixes: --------------------- - Security updates - UTF8 fixes - Fix PHP errors when signing up for mobile alerts - KML overlay - Faster (graph) rendering I want to personally thank Ushahidi development community for giving me a hand specially Ajay who can code w/ his eyes shut, amazes me every single time. Since KML overlay has been fixed with 2.6 release, tracker now plots/tracks crisis landing spots (thanks google!), check it out its pretty cool. Hope you like it. Feedback is welcome! regards, /virendra -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [outages] [ADMIN] TRACKER.OUTAGES.ORG Planned Maintenance Friday (12/7/2012) from 12:00PM to 14:00PST.
