The music and image libraries have been copied to the new server (ash.) Image files and music files seen at test.datamantic.com are coming off the new server unless the URLs specifically start with http://www.digitalmediatree.... They will all be served off ash once I update the DNS. So it literally is just flipping a switch at this point.
I'll put up a notice on the old server that the site is down temporarily while moving servers. Then I'll resync the database again so nothing is lost (like those comments,) and point the DNS at ash. Hopefully it should only take 5 minutes for DNS to be updated, but this is somewhat dependent on the black arts of DNS resolution, so I wouldn't bet my life on it or anything. Should happen quickly though. Maybe I'll do that as late tonight as I can.
I will be online while out of town, yes.
