• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

New CafeHusky Software!

Hmm...

"New CafeHusky Software" ...

Do those words strike terror in your heart? Do they bring back horrific images of slow-loading pages? Do they invoke visions of ad-filled pages and hard-to-navigate websites?

Well, fear not, boys and girls! I've had a chance to play with our new software a little bit and I think it's super-duper cool! Now you can have the chance to play with it, too!

Come on down to MotoXotica this Saturday January 8th and test-drive our new software! We need your impressions/opinions/suggestions and are very interested in what you have to say!

All details can be found in this thread in the Cafe Office...
