We're going to go one better (sort of). In tomorrow's release, we're integrating downtime notification directly into the product. So everyone will know about the planned maintenance simply by being logged into HLO. We'll also continue announcing here, but a lot of users don't frequent the forums, so those folks will now have a heads-up.
The first notification will be whenever we schedule the maintenance. After that, you'll see a reminder at 24 hours and then more frequently as the actual downtime nears.
Please note: The new mechanism will be put in place tomorrow. So it won't actually WORK until the FOLLOWING release cycle.
