Heads up, Salesforce Developers and #AwesomeAdmins – we’ll be performing maintenance on our sign-up infrastructure this weekend to bring the Spring ’16 update to new Developer Editions and Admin Playgrounds. During this maintenance window you will not be able to sign up for brand-new accounts but you WILL be able to access your existing accounts.

Here’s the timeline for this upcoming maintenance:

• Friday, February 12th, 2016 3PM PST: New Developer Edition sign-ups pause and maintenance window begins.
• Saturday, February 13th, 2016 6AM PST: Sign-ups resume for users in the AMER (North, Central, & South America) & EMEA (Europe, Middle East & Africa) regions.
• Saturday, February 13th, 2016 4PM PST: Maintenance window ends. Sign-ups resume for all users.

These times are approximate, so make sure you’re following @SalesforceDevs on Twitter for updates. If you think you will need a new Developer Edition during the maintenance window, we encourage you to sign up for a new Developer Edition right away. Again, access to existing Developer Editions will not be affected.
