If anyone has an interest, as of 8 est. the FCC database is still down. I am going to keep checking throughout the day. I use it frequently, and I'm glad it's there. Take care.

"Our servers left FCC headquarters in seven moving vans after midnight and arrived safely at the new commercial data center facility early Friday morning.
While all the data and infrastructure arrived intact, upon arrival we discovered the need for some additional cabling to be done by our commercial partners that took longer than expected. Unfortunately, this delayed completion of all of the system upgrades – even with the FCC team working around the clock throughout the holiday weekend."
The good news is ECFS is available to the public and EDOCS should be available later today. More detail on the systems we are working to make available by Thursday morning can be found here.

Very helpful, thank you for that. I have no problem with the work they're doing, like I said, I'm glad the system is there. I don't have any knowledge about their contracting or outsourcing, but just from reading that, I can assume that an independent contractor is managing the database now. That's okay, it's all good, as the younger folks like to say.
