Update: Josh is getting the boot, and Infinity Next is likely cancelled. Now, that doesn't mean the site is going to shut down, far from it. high-temperature toroidal motion devices is planning to re-assume direct control of developing and implementing solutions. Here is the current site-wide poll regarding the next course of action regarding the site:

Now, the consensus (as of right now) is to stick with vichan and hack a bunch of fixes into it. This means the board is safe and preserved, no risk of us losing everything we have left.
However, there was a nearly unanimous response that, if we were to go to another software, that we should dump the entire site's content and start anew. As much as it pains me, I'm tempted to agree. Next was grounded by its inability to process the copied data (among other flaws.)
Regardless, I'm continuing to archive the board, in case such an event does happen.
But what does this news mean for us? I honestly don't know. If everyone's still raring for a migration to some other site, that's still on the table. /monster/ is still dreaming of a Justicechan, odds are /pol/ is content just to stay on-site (not that they don't dream of their own chan as well.) high-temperature toroidal motion devices himself said that he doesn't mind people talking other chans on h8chan, that's why he lets 314skin advertise on it. So, if we need to continue our search for a new home, that's fine too.
In any case, wherever we may go, may we always bring our goddess with us.
