There are a few teething troubles at the moment. The forum has just moved to an
upgraded server with new OS and webserver stack. 

It's also moved domain name as the keen eyed among you will have no doubt
noticed. 

There are a few kinks to iron out as myBB (the forum software) and some of the
plugins don't play well with the new software. 

I like open source things and want to try and emulate that with the forum, so
right now I've got an Ansible playbook that'll spin up a complete server
environment, a git repo with the forum site and software (minus the sensitive
bits with credentials in), a repo with the style/templates and a repo with the
main 'non-forum' www section of the site up on GitLab. 

Soon, probably in the new year, it'll be opened up as public repos so people can
get a bit more of an insight into the backend of the forums and fork it or make
their own or keep things going if I pack it all in (not that I intend to). 

Hopefully more people can then contribute to things like updating guides and
what not. The site has been up on GitHub for ages[0] but I didn't really
publicise that, so hopefully the new stuff up on GitLab will be of more interest
as a whole collection.

As I mentioned in another email here - this is all a bit of an experiment
really, so things might change or not happen, but I'd like to open up what I can
to the community.
