I won't go into the technical reasons why, but if you're on MIRT you'll still have access to the test site.

Just bear in mind that if you continue to use DU4 while it's officially "offline" you may see things go weird while while we work on it. (If that happens you can just switch back to DU3.)

I finished 2 terms in a row last month, so it was time to step down.

I think MIRT is one reason I've been going into DU4 withdrawal, lol. I got to use it long enough to get addicted to it.

The reason I ask is because I was really loving DU4, and I miss it greatly. Just wondering if you have any idea when we might get it back.

I know you're working hard, and this is NOT a complaint about how long it's taking, or anything like that. If it's going to be a while yet, I understand. It would just be nice to have some idea how things are going.

We probably won't be bringing DU4 back for another test, because it's almost ready for full launch. We'll have more news next week.

That's what I was hoping to hear!

I will stand back and stand by for further word.
