Dave Yeo:
PHP problems, the site should be regularly restarted now.

Apparently that is not included in the "steps to upgrade our infrastructure", although everybody must log in on that server in order to be able to click on the upgrade button.

It was, but not enough to handle the unexpected number of users.

That depends on what you mean by 'must have'. If you are happy with what you have, probably not (and I understand that there will be a 5.0.9 release). The biggies are:

* Better support foe DOS/WinOS2.
* Support to run on modern (EFI) hardware. (required for the DOS/WinOS2 support).There are more things, but most are included in the 5.0.x updates. If you don't need those things, installing 5.1 will not do much different than installing 5.0.8 will do.

Roderick Klein:
I like the GPT support. I find MBR support comes with a long list of issue's if you want to support multi boot.
GPT from my perspective is easier.

Remy:
Since the annoncement, the site is unresponding (tried many many many... times !)
Or could the new "autoritary" Digital Service Act (DSA) impact  responstime ?

Jochen Schäfer:
Yes, most likely everybody wants that. It would be better to just wait a day, so that the load on the site can subside.
