"Docs will not be editable on Saturday, September 5, 2009 from 12:00 – 1:30 pm PST. All Docs should be accessible during this time."

Will Google release the new design there with many new features?

I hope the interconnexion of all services will not bring this too often ^^

But I also hope Cosmo to be tied to Gmail!

Whatever they are doing is currently in progress. If you open up a document in Google Docs right now, you are presented with the following message:

"Google Docs is currently in read only mode. Changes will not be saved."

I'm somewhat surprised the save button still is activated and tells you it saved, but if you close the document and come back, as stated by the message they document is not saved.

Actually it's just come back, I've just tested saving and it works.

What I found surprising was they just told you that it was read-only and didn't have a message saying it was planned downtime.
