  Greg, none are planned for the immediate future. All articles and
binaries ever posted are still on the server with the exceptions of
cancelled posts and those older than a (now) 14 day period in
p.off-topic.

  I don't foresee any problems with the server when the clocks trip into
the New Year but you can do so, if you wish.
