 Cool! How about tomorrow? If so, I'd make some backups and turn off the
 daily updater. Ideally, the upgrade would happen between 8:00 and 12:00
 UTC or between 13:00 UTC and 17:00 UTC.

 working on a TPA-wide roadmap that will confirm this.

 Sounds good. Having a heads-up of one or two workdays should be sufficient
 in most cases.

 Thanks!
