  Trying to log in, but I get a screen saying “Unexpected maintenance” and that my dashboard would be unavailable for 730 days. I can get in under global dashboard, but can’t post. Can anyone explain what’s happening? Thanks

  I get the same message and would REALLY like to know what’s going on. I can’t help but think this is some kind of cruel joke.

  Two years does seem a little excessive.

  Same problem here. I’m just curious as you are.
  And 730 days is a very long time, isn’t it? Is this message correct?

  I am getting this error as well for one of my blogs. I hope WordPress addresses it soon.

  Well, looks like there’s a lot of pleople. I’m quite confident in WordPress good quality service, though.

  I’m pretty sure they will address this problem soon.

  Just talked to staff. They say it’s fixed now.

  Sorry for the trouble folks. There was a hardware failure that resulted in us having to move some things around a little bit. To ensure a smooth transition, a small percentage of dashboards were turned off for about 15 min. Unfortunately, when I put up the maintenance notification, I typed the year 2006 rather than 2008, so rather than 15 min, some people saw 730 days. Everything should be back to normal now, however.

  A Time Travel feature WOULD be cool, though.
