We truthfully did not have advanced notice of this required maintenance work. It came as a surprise to us too, and we absolutely agree that not being able to give you a proper heads up (as we have previously) is not acceptable. This started out as an unexpected and unscheduled minor disruption to service, which then uncovered issues that were not anticipated and outside of our control that have resulted in the need for more down-time. We are planning to add a notice in the WME Tile Build popup so that all editors are kept informed of the situation.
Since we last posted, we have learned that our earlier belief that it will take one month for this maintenance to complete may have been an overestimation. We are optimistic that in reality it will be shorter, but still don’t want to set any false expectations. Either way, we will take advantage of this time to make improvements so that the service is enhanced once back.
