I posted this this afternoon:
…The Glow Blogs migration export will start on 19th September 2014
Any new posts or content added to blogs after that date will not be migrated to the new service.
The new service should be up and running by Oct 3rd 2014
The data from the current blog servers will be exported on the 19th of September and migrated to the new service ready for the go live date.
