A quick heads-up on the recent outage:
GoDaddy shut us down when our database surpassed 1GB, and it took several calls to support to get it restored. For the meantime, I've disabled the built-in full-text engine (which is used to make searches run more quickly), since it used nearly 600MB worth of DB space. Removing that got us back under the magical 1GB threshold. Because of this, searches will run a little more slowly than usual, and we encourage you to use the google search over the forum search.
Moving forward, we will need to eventually upgrade our hosting plan to a VPS (virtual private server), which is more expensive. But disabling the search indexing buys us time.
