Well, today is totally lost. Between dealing with investor support issues I have to spend hours fiddling with MGW server.
I have way too much coding to do to be stuck doing MGW server maintenance!
So far the issues have not been related to MGW itself, server out of RAM, new versions, shellshock, test versions crashing and messing up the cache, etc.
As of next weekend, I will formally stop running MGW servers. Until the production servers are running, there wont be any MGW servers.
I suggest to withdraw all the MGW assets ASAP. if they get stuck after I shutdown the MGW on my dev servers, it could take a while for me to figure out how to properly to manual withdraws. I need to code for 14 to 20 hours at a stretch and I cannot be monitoring people's deposit/withdraws that are not appearing after 17 blocks. So if you do not withdraw before the weekend, the funds will be safe but inaccessible for some weeks.

What does this exactly means? Will MGW be totally off in some days and never come back? Why was not "the process" shared between 3 independent parties as it was described?
The production servers are supposed to be nearly ready, but I have been hearing this for 3 months. It is severely impacting my work schedule and I need to complete SuperNET, Teleport, Tradebots, InstantDEX and Privatebet this year. I do not have any time to do MGW customer support or server maintenance. That is not my expertise anyway.
things should go much better when I am not doing MGW stuff that I shouldnt have been doing for a while. If this means MGW is offline for a month, then so be it. At least my coding will get back on track.
I cant zone out in the code for 12 hours like I used to and this makes me much, much slower at coding and I wont be able to finish all the projects this year if I keep doing MGW support.
