Moving servers
As mentioned in the previous announcement, the project will be moving servers soon.
How soon? Now.
There will be downtime for at most 24 hours, or however long it takes for the DNS changes to update worldwide, but as beta registrations have not opened yet it shouldn't affect anyone. At worst, a few people will wonder why links to the website aren't working.
Update (1 hour later): The move was a complete success. At the moment the site exists on both hosts, but as soon as the DNS changes have spread out to everyone, I'll disable the old server.

DNS changes has propagated for me :)
And, have we moved to AWS as well?

Yes, AWS it is. And now page generation speed (located at the bottom of each page) seems to be a lot faster than before. Previously it was on a server shared with a number of other services, some of which were quite demanding on resources. I decided it was better to move it to a separate location.
Also, AWS provides the ability to scale up in future if it becomes necessary to do so - the previous host did not.
