Maintenance notification: SPI services 2026-04-02 + login for inactive accounts

Dear SPI services user,

Due to an upgrade of SPI servers and applications, the *.spi-inc.org web applications and mailing lists will be interrupted on 04-02 at 04am EST.
The upgrade should not take more than a few minutes, with a potential extension up to 1 hour in case of unplanned issues.

Due to the drop in old encryption scheme used in older version of the members website (https://members.spi-inc.org), users who have not logged in since March 2023 won't be able to log in using their password and will have to go through the password reset form instead.

This does not affect any current contributing member, as they all had to log in at least once to maintain their membership.

To avoid this, users still interested in SPI operations can log in on https://members.spi-inc.org/ before April 2nd.

If you no longer want to be associated to SPI, please send an email to privacy(at)spi-inc(dot)org, as instructed in the current privacy policy [1].

Best regards,
