A few more bit of information from **Ed Zotti** :

> [@Current Status of SDMB Upgrade](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/current-status-of-sdmb-upgrade/462854/176):
>
> Is it safe to say that we can expect no progress until the Chapter 11 is resolved or might we some additional changes before then?

> [@Current Status of SDMB Upgrade](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/current-status-of-sdmb-upgrade/462854/180):
>
> I wouldn’t say you’ll have to wait till we’re out of bankruptcy, but that’s as far as I’ll go right now. I’d rather have you be surprised than disappointed.

> [@Current Status of SDMB Upgrade](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/current-status-of-sdmb-upgrade/462854/181):

> Thank you again Ed. I hope all goes well and that you’ll give us small updates every once in the while.
> 
> Can you talk at all about contingency plans if CL folds? I assume the SD & SDMB would and could be sold as a viable asset. Again I understand if you cannot talk about at this point.

> Nobody here is thinking that way. We’ve got a plan and we’re trying to implement it with constrained resources. That’s all I can say right now.
