[POSTED 9:35am PST] Wednesday, March 10, 2010 at 5:00 a.m. Pacific, we’ll be closing logins and disabling major inworld services for one hour of upgrade work on our databases.
Residents who are in world will not be disconnected when maintenance begins, but will lose access to services such as
mapping,
teleport,
inventory,
object and L$ transfers, and
LindeX.
We’ll warn in world several minutes before the outage begins, and we’ll post any changes to the scope and schedule of the work here as they develop.

[RESOLVED 4:41 pm PST] Public blogs and forums are back up and running normally.
[12:20 pm Pacific]  Our public blogs and forums have been taken down for a bit of unscheduled maintenance. We’re checking with our service provider to obtain an ETA on their return to service.

[Resolved @ 2AM PST] Our technicians have resolved this issue.  Affected residents should be able to open and take objects back into their inventory.
[Posted @ 12:40AM PST] An issue where objects cannot be opened or taken back into inventory is being investigated.  This issue only affects a handful of residents.  Any additional information or status updates will be posted here as they are available.

[RESOLVED - 11:03am] Viewer 2 Log in announcement error has been taken down.
[10:16am PST]  We are aware that the Viewer 2 Beta login screen is now indicating that residents are logging into the beta grid, when they are, in fact, actually logging into the Main Grid.  This announcement will be taken down later today. All transactions on this grid are live and will be applied to your Linden balance as it would normally. Check back here for any updates.
