Michael: Slow every time I tried to access FT yesterday. I stopped trying after a while. Performance feels much better today.

I think a lot of us here would appreciate getting an occasional update on the problems. It's a little like being stuck on the ground waiting for a flight that's an hour late to take off with no departure time in sight - for some reason, it feels much better just to know what's going on. I agree with other people who have said that we're not paying for FlyerTalk, and remain grateful for the free service, but at the same time it would still be nice to be clued in.

In any case, I appreciate your efforts.
