Thanks for the heads-up. (It's nice to see that I get an extra sentence the others didn't get.)

Good idea preventing new threads in the lead up to the change. I think that it would be a better idea to just leave existing threads as editable for longer - although if there's any loose ends I expect the threads will just be recreated. (I also expect there's a technical limitation and automatic locking of the Forum: namespace is a feature which can't be avoided.)
