Attention: Due to an upgrade beginning on Friday, the 22nd August 2025, any new collabs, groups and any changes to teams will not be kept beyond the weekend. User creation will also be disabled during this time. The actual upgrade will take place on Wednesday, 27th August. On that day, any service requiring a Keycloak login will be unavailable for the duration of the upgrade. Thank you for your understanding as we complete this important work.

The Wiki service will be temporarily unavailable for scheduled maintenance on Friday, August 22nd, 2025, starting at 12:30 CEST up to 1H.

Following the system restart, the Collaboration and Group creation features will be temporarily disabled and will return HTTP 503 Service Unavailable errors until further notice.
