TYPO3 Association Webserver Update
==================================

12 October 2009

On 11 October 2009 we switched the server hardware for association.typo3.org and updated the database to utf-8 format. This caused a short downtime of the site.
The database is now up to date and displays german umlauts like in "Lübeck" correctly.
