|That was the shortest month of the year, and also (at least on this hemisphere) not only are the months getting longer again, so are the days.

In terms of usage this was a quite month. User count is up to 216, of which 154 active according to my dashboard.

On the technical side, the update to 4.1.0 has happened. I really wanted this one for the added configuration options (importing suspended domains from big instances) and stability (increased time-out values, which superseded the quick hacks mentioned last month). However, quite some manual work was needed to get it working so I'm glad it got done without a hitch. Uptime according to uptimerobot: 99,95%. 

I am again grateful for all the support in running the Drum! Thank you all!
