[1:45] <@SyncError|work> The team has identified the issues that were causing the XMPP auth issues and are currently working to resolve them.
[1:46] <@SyncError|work> We'll give an update if possible as things progress.
[1:46] <@SyncError|work> This current downtime is not due to the update that we mentioned may occur today.
[1:46] <@SyncError|work> Additional news on this update (including a small preview with some images) will occur later this afternoon.
[1:47] <@SyncError|work> Currently we do not plan to perform that update today as we felt that it deserved more testing time
[1:47] <@SyncError|work> and did not want to cause any issues with an update prior to the DreamHack tournament.
[1:48] <@SyncError|work> We hoped to get the update out before the tournament
[1:48] <@SyncError|work> but with little testing time, it would have been an unwise decision despite what we wanted.
So basically, the backend downgrade is working as well as they expected.

<@SyncError|work> I believe we just finished testing our site fix and are currently deploying it to the main site.
<@SyncError|work> We should be back up and running soon.
