COA Website - poor performance

This morning around 10am our COA website performance became really slow, sometimes unreachable, and sometimes showing errors. Coincidentally, this occurred while Cynthia Ehlinger and I were making important changes to the website (more to come but significant updates applied). 
After calling our web hosting vendor I was informed at 1:00p that they are doing some server maintenance that could take "worst case, up to 12 hours" so this is still a problem but it's expected to clear up later today. We had been warned of some planned maintenance but we were told it would begin late tomorrow evening ... surprise!
So you may want to hold off visiting our updated website (still suffering at 2:30p) until this evening when we will hope the maintenance has completed. If you do visit, be very patient as pages may take a long time to load while the maintenance continues.
Thank you for your patience and continued support of COA and our online services.
