Problem is not with changing servers, but with propagating information about new PF server localization throughout the web. That will take a day or two.

Yep! DNS updates come around slowly, when you've made such a move. Some of us will be able to log on fairly soon after the move and others ... well, they'll be in withdrawal for another day or two.
