Database rollback

Hello,
Due to an error during emergency server maintenance yesterday,
some data was deleted. This includes forum.dlang.org and
wiki.dlang.org databases.
I managed to recover the MySQL databases, so wiki.dlang.org
should work as before. Unfortunately, the last working backup of
the forum.dlang.org database is from March 11. (Normally, we have
hourly off-site backups of everything, but this data was excluded
from backups due to a misconfiguration introduced during another
emergency server maintenance...)
As a result, all account changes (new accounts, subscriptions,
read post history...) since March 11 have been lost, and will
need to be recreated. Forum posts are not affected, as they are
not stored elsewhere.
If you are missing some data and don't have a copy elsewhere, let
me know and I'll see if I can recover it from other sources (like
logs).
Apologies for the inconvenience.
