Maintenance will be occurring tonight at 23:00.
There will be a server reset and backend modifications. We expect the maintenance to last approximately 3 hours. The servers will be unavailable during this time.
Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience!

"während der heutigen Wartung ist unseren Technikern ein Fehler im EU-Backend aufgefallen, dessen Behebung einige zusätzliche Zeit in Anspruch nimmt. Die EU-Server werden daher erst in einigen Stunden wieder geöffnet werden. Derzeit gehen wir von einer Dauer von ca. weiteren 6 Stunden aus (Stand: 10:45 Uhr)."
Rough translation of the main points:
During maintenance today, out technicians discovered a flaw in the EU back end. As of 10:45 AM we expect that the time needed to adress this issue will be roughly 6 hours.
The usual promise to keep us updated was also posted. I was not really motivated copying and pasting too often copied and pasted content, though.

Quite some time for "back end issues with the unique server names" as stated in the french forum section. German and french clients are still awaiting the current CS patch so my guess is more like another delay instead of game up and running at 18:30.
EDIT:
Well what a coincidence. Not long after i presumed that this issue will take more time, we have an official statement that informs us that "the technicians are still working on the Eu servers but will need a little more time".
Btw 18:30 at which time? London time?
Concerning the questions about timezone: everything taken from german forum should be UTC/GMT+2(Berlin). French stuff might be meant for paris time but since the french players have not been blessed with any statement concerning time, i believe that this might be important not now but maybe another day.

EDIT:
New post in the french section, claiming ( o what unforeseen surprise!) that whatever they do will take another undefined amount of time with no end or result currently in sight.
I intentionally do avoid to translate directly as any kind of "soon" has a well deserved bad taste to it.

As gwaera tells us, all is well and just some "final checks" have to be made.
