So the new address is out there, but because of the TTL for the record anyone who did a lookup and got the old address is going to have to wait ~23604 seconds before that lookup expires from their local cache. (Or get their DNS server flushed, but most operators won't do that.)
So the folks who have been helpful before aren't going to be able to be of much help until that TTL expires.
