Edit: update complete. Please note that with the new search it will take a several hours to reindex and update search. Please file an issue with the infrastructure project if you notice anything odd.
Search will be re-enabled when indexing is complete and check out the new project modules browse by category option.
More information will be posted once search indexes are updated
Thanks go to to a lot of folks over the past few months who participated in the bug fixes/reporting and testing.
Drupal.org will be operating in 'read-only' mode while undergoing update.
All posting will be disabled while Drupal.org database undergoes updating to the CVS codebase. While this is a minor inconvenience I think everyone will agree that this is a much anticipated and hoped for minor inconvenience.
Estimated time of one hour. Start 20:00 UTC and end 21:00 UTC
The brief steps for the curious are
- post notice
- disable people from posting new stuff
- backup database
- update copy of the database
- change files
The backout plan is to restore the database backup.

All done!
The update has been completed. :)
Note that the site is currently undergoing a re-indexing for the site search in the background. It should be finished in about 10 hours or so, after which time you can use Drupal 4.7's new enhanced search engine. :)
Please post any bugs you encounter to the Drupal.org maintenance issue tracker.
Thank you!
