Its pretty much ready now, with all of the new features it will have to be limited to 400 users per server, at the moment the existing chat will go to 700ish per server before it croaks.
So to get it all up and running we will need to purchase another 3 servers together with FMS licenses.
Rather than change it all over what we will do is put a new server in place 'chat 4' which will work with the existing 3, we will leave it like that for a couple of weeks to see how well it goes, if all is well we will then put in the other 2 servers and migrate eveything over.
After that we will have a load balanced version made, in this version rooms will be shared across servers which will get round the issues that we have at the moment with everybody trying to get into chat 1.
With regard to timescales we will probably have the new server in place and configured in about a week subject to the Canadian developer having completed some cosmetic changes.
