UPDATE The main problem will have been solved some time before about 21:30hrs UTC Tue !9th Feb
A developer has suggested

For now, I suggest two things:
  1. (USERS asking questions & Contributors replying)
    If you see posts attributed to you that you didn't do, edit the post and preface it with "DB glitch: I didn't write this" or something to that effect. In cases where we know who did write it, you can attribute it correctly.
  2. (CONTRIBUTORS)
    Post (in -> ) /forums/contributors/708998 with links to the issues you find ....


I am trying to alert admin to have problems checked out.

Do not be surprised at present if posts do not appear correctly.

John, the best thing to do is jump in #sumo or #sumodev on irc. What problems are you seeing?
