What
...
happened as part of the change?
On December 1, 2020 (starting 8 p.m. CET) the current the previous FileSender test system https://filesender-test.aco.net/ will become the new production service available at https://filesender.aco.net/, taking over from the previous/old system.
Between 8 p.m. and midnight that day neither system may be availble, so plan your FileSending activities accordingly. 
The system previously available at https://filesender.aco.net/ will be was renamed to https://filesender-old.aco.net/ and will remain accessible there for a few days so that remained accessible until all previously uploaded files can continue to be downloaded (until they expire, as usual). There will be no need (or possibility) to log in to filesender-old.aco.net and no new files can be uploaded there. Once all uploaded files have expired. Once all files had expired on filesender-old.aco.net the system will be was removed.
What happened to my data uploaded before the change?
All files uploaded to the old previous system will remain remained available for download at https://filesender-old.aco.net/ . Any "Download Links" you may have shared with others will continue to work fine (until they expire): These will automatically be rewritten to https://filesender-old.aco.net/ and can be downloaded from there. You will not be able to add or remove any data from the old system after the change. All data on the old system will simply expire (as usual) and be automatically deleted.until they expired.
What happenes to "Guest vouchers" I have issued from the old system?
Invitations to upload files issued from the old system will no longer work after the old system has been renamed ( and no new files can be uploaded there after the change)to the old system. Instead you can issue and share new invitations from the new system.
I have recieved a "Guest voucher" but that only redirects me to this wiki?
Sorry We're sorry for your inconvenience. As part of the system change described on this page we need to prevent the creation of new uploads/files/transfers on the old system (otherwise we could never replace it with the new, much improved, one). That means "Guest vouchers" (i.e., invitations to upload files) sent to you from the old system (before Dec 2, 2020) will no longer work.
Please contact the person having sent you the upload invitation and ask them to send you another one. Feel Feel free to tell them we said sopoint them to this page.
What happened to my data uploaded to the test system?
Files uploaded to https://filesender-test.aco.net/ before the change remain available after the changeremained available until they expired: The server and all data will then simply be accessible via https://filesender.aco.net/ as well as via the previous/current name are now accessible at https://filesender-test.aco.net/. All files and all download links will remain from the test system remained valid and will continue continued to work until they expireexpired.
(At some point after the change the server URL https://filesender-test.aco.net/ will be removed so only the well-known production system URL https://filesender.aco.net/ should ever be used/accessed/stored in bookmarks/etc.)

happened to "Guest vouchers" I have issued from the test system?
Those should remain remained fully functional until they expireexpired. Uploading files using these vouchers will happen happened to the new production system.
...
If you have used this new functionality from the test system you'll have to re-download (or manually update ) its configuration file: To do that please re-download the latest version of the FileSender "Python CLI client" and the "Python CLI Client configuration" from the new production FileSender server ("My profile") to update the server name encoded into the client as well as any other changed settingsand replace any previously downloaded versions. Otherwise the client will fail to connect once filesender-test.aco.net no longer points to filesender.aco.net. in the DNS.
Any generated "API Secrets" will remain generated on the test system continue to be valid and usable after the server changeon the new production system.
I still have other questions not answered here!
