Update on the old forum archive

Hi all


I have some news regarding the archive of the old posts in the previous forum (powered by Fusetalk)


The Fusetalk software will finally go offline permanently by the end of January 2020 meaning that it will no longer be available or searchable. As we’ve said previously the software is no longer supported and now poses a serious cybersecurity concern.


There will be a short length of time where discussions within the old forum will not be available while an archive is being prepared.  We suggest if there are any discussions you wish to keep for reference, that you save a copy of it before the end of January.


It has also been requested that we only archive the conversations posted on the old forum since the release of the 18th Edition Wiring regs (i.e. from July/August 2018) so that out-of-date regs information is not made available. So again, if there are any past conversations that you wish to keep a copy of then we’d recommend that you do so before the end of January.


Any questions please ask or email us at community-online@theiet.org

    LoL - the phrase "know the cost of everything, and the value of nothing" springs to mind


    As I mentioned at the time, they shut down the Axe and Cleaver in favour of a wine bar - now the Axe and Cleaver is getting demolished.


    Nothing left but memories.


    More seriously, the old Forum did have a proportion of dross in there - I contributed to some my self. But there is actually a wealth of Technical knowledge in that Forum that isn't directly related to BS 7671 and specifically pre or post a certain edition, but it would probably be shame to just skip it.


    But such is life
