I'm going to have to ask that this goes to the change control board for
approval, I assume you have a method of procedure to present, along with
a full backout plan? We'll make sure to do a post-mortem on this as
well.

Is there a defined maintenance window for the list? Has it been
published? Will users be impacted by this change? If so, I am not
sure I am comfortable with the server being unavailable on a Friday
night. We're still using the service at 10PM. Has anyone performed a
risk analysis of this change? Is it truly necessary? Can we move it
to Saturday morning in the wee hours, or preferably Sunday from
midnight to 6am Central? Is it possible to schedule a call for later
tonight prior to the maintenance window to consider the options?
