Last Thursday March 19, 2026, the web host service was conducting scheduled maintenance on the server that hosts the Brokers Network Group websites. This caused the search and login functionality of the bbn-net.com domain to stop working. After working with the technical support staff for the hosting service, it was determined that the cause was an upgrade to the Perl script library to version 5.32.1 from 5.22.1. The coding syntax had drastic changes. I revised the code over the weekend and had the revised coding tested and then uploaded the changes. However, there is an error on the server that is preventing the code from being implemented.

Sunday, I began converting the bbn-net.com website to a new format and will continue to work 14 hours daily until it is completed. Please consult the unified websites blog posts here for updates. I will be extending the next billing due dates to compensate for the down time and apologize for this inconvenience.
