Michael Engberg just posted this over at the DRC’s forums

After a bit of hair-pulling, I’ve finally got the doors to the gallery powered again. The power to the doors had been completely severed. It was obvious that it had been that way for quite some time, rather than just the usual gradual degredation from neglect we’re accustomed to seeing.

In any case, they’re working now.

Unfortunately, the explorers will have to wait to see it until we have opened the area of the city down to the gallery.

The Restoration Engineers (ResEngs) are now giving Beginner Orientations in the Beginners Bevin.

Orientations start every hour from 4 until 10 PST. The Restoration Engineers can be identified by wearing a helmet with a lamp on and having the prefix “ResEng” on their names.

You can find a transcript of one of yesterdays orientaiton meetings here: Transcript

The DRC’s Dr. Kodama made a visit to the city today to check on the explorers and structures after the mass link incident caused by the Bahro during yesterdays Town Hall Meeting.

Kodama mentioned that the city is closed as they double check some stability issues and have noticed some changes since yesterdays incident.

Re-Opening of the Cavern w/ The DRC

ANNOUNCEMENT: Re-Opening of the Cavern w/ The D’ni Restoration Council (DRC)
Shorah Explorers! We are pleased to announce our next Town Hall meeting on the D’mala Shard. This time our honored guests will be members of the D’ni Restoration Coucil (DRC) and we will be discussing the up-coming opening and future of the Cavern and Ages, as well as what the DRC themselves have been up to.

Please remember to activate the /autoshout, /autoschreien (German), or /autocrier (French), to toggle age broadcasting on and off. As usual, the format will be for the first half of the meeting to answer pre-submitted questions. Then for the second half of the meeting we will open the floor for questions. Please remember that if you have a question during the open floor portion, that you need to PM the appointed Liaison with “QUESTION” and you will then be added to the queue. We ask that you please have your question ready (typed out) so that when your name is called we can avoid any delays.

The new format for this and all future meetings is that we ask that all attending explorers and guests to please STAND during the meeting. We also ask that you do not use your KI if you can avoid it. We are doing our best to find any and all methods to ensure a “stable” environment for all attending and to avoid any crashing or vanishing of explorers and our guests. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in this.
