The folks at Netdevil have informed us that they are having to move the Jumpgate Classic game servers to a new hosting facility.
The exact timing of the move is still pending but it is most likely going to be some time in the next week. When the move does happen, all JGC clients will need a minor file patch so the game knows where to connect to.
Once the patch files are available, GM Istvan will be providing a copy to us to assist in helping everyone patch in a timely manner.
As more information comes available, I'll post here. Also keep an eye on the JOSSH Forums.

As we get going here in 2010, I am interested in broadening the horizons of our Squad. Mainly I think it may be time to consider a new home with the turmoil that continues with the JGE development.
While we all still hope for an awesome release, prudence dictates that we consider other alternatives where we can plant our New Dawn flag.
If any members or "extended family" have experience with STO, please register with our forums and join in the discussion there.

Testing has been completed on the imporation of existing users from the old (PHP-Nuke) site with excellent results. All users WILL have to be issued a new temporary password that they can log in and change right away.
Of the 699 registered users of the old site, only 209 had email addresses associated with them. Those 490 users most likely were the victim of one of several hackings that the New Dawn website suffered many years ago. In order for a user account to be migrated, the account MUST have had the following: User Name (real name), Login Name (normally the callsign), and email address. I did my best to ensure previous members were included in the migration by consulting old mailing lists etc. My plan is to continue the testing and build out here on the dev site, and then move everything to the "live" configuration.
I also have "tweaked" the transparency settings in some of the graphics to provide better contrast for the text of articles against the imagry here. I think the present settings are very good, but please let me know if you think they need further refinement.
There will be a lot of work to build out our databases and knowlegebase. If you are good with Joomla and would like to help, please PM me and let me know.

After a few months of tinkering and neglect, the home of New Dawn has a new look and set of features.
The new look has been long overdue and with luck, will serve our squad well as we go forward into the future. Presently we are customized for the eventual release of Jumpgate Evolution™ MMO by the folks at Netdevil, along with their partners at Gazillion.
With numerous recent changes in personnel and timetables, there has been a growing concern in the command staff about the JGE project, but there is still a patient "wait and see" attitude prevailing for now.
All current and former members are encouraged to register and check in on the forums!
I hope you all enjoy the new site!

As time has allowed, additional features and back-end configurations have been added to the site to ensure much of the previous functionality of the website is not lost with the transition to the new format.
The technical issues with the forums have been resolved and they will soon be duplicated here.
As part of our squads history of being an information source, I have added in a file management utility that will allow for better controlled access to things like ingame tools, custom HUDs, and "Intelligence Briefs". I'm studying a way to import all the existing users from the php-nuke site into the joomla site. I'm hoping you will all not need to re-register with the site in order to use it.
More to come.
