Service should be restored

After completely reformatting the CloudFlare DNS settings, the OP-EZY sites that run through it should now be online again. It turns out the large amount of domains and subdomains running on our site sends too big an update request to the CloudFlare servers causing it to fail.

Some services down

OP-EZY is aware of an issue with our cloudflare service, and is working on getting service restored as soon as possible.

It all goes dark

So, if you've visited OP-EZY or Robert Ian Hawdon since midnight, you can't fail to notice the messages you're greeted with.
On the 18th January and and 23rd, these two OP-EZY powered services (the two sites with the most hits) will be participating in the SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and PIPA (Protect IP Act) protest blackouts.
The sites themselves won't be down, and by following the directions on the page, you'll still be able to access all the content.
For more information about SOPA and PIPA, please visit: http://americancensorship.org/

OP-EZY 7.0

It's finally here, to celebrate 6 years since our website launched, OP-EZY's new website, powered by MagicPage has been launched. There are still a few bugs that need ironing out, but the majority of the site either works, or has had a suitable workaround applied.

6.0 will be added to the time machine shortly!

Cheers for the support, and keep watching for future developments.

Unscheduled Downtime - 2011-09-11 21:46 UTC - 2011-09-12 10:52 UTC

OP-EZY apologises for the downtime that occurred on 11th September 2011 starting at 21:46 UTC ending on 12th September 2011 at 10:52 UTC. This was due to a misconfiguration of the webserver when setting up an internal IIS server via proxy.
Services such as Email, SSH and FTP remained unaffected. No data was lost due to this downtime.

OP-EZY 7 - Quick Update

Development is still going with OP-EZY 7, the new site will be rolled out as soon as I feel MagicPage is ready enough to host a public website. It doesn't mean that MagicPage itself will be ready for public consumption though.
Once MagicPage is at the stage I want it, the plan is to release it under the GNU Public Licence (GPL), step back a little, and let the world's more experienced hackers, take it into more practical directions. Watch this space!
Anyone interested in seeing the current development of OP-EZY 7 can have have a look in our development area, Sandbox 4. (at the time of writing)
