cran downtime scheduled for Thursday afternoon

[Roger R Dingledine <arma@mit.edu>]

It's time to get cran a real OS with a real kernel. No more
of this redhat 4.2 stuff with outdated apache and a 2.0 kernel :)

We haven't decided what yet -- the choice is between RH 6.x and
Debian -- but it will probably be redhat for the sake of
convenience and familiarity for most of cran's current users.

Anyway, what does this mean?
cran will be down from 5pm eastern time on Thursday until
whenever we get done, probably an hour or two later.

How does this affect you?
Your mail through your seul.org address will be delayed. Your
mailing lists will get delayed. Your cvs will be down. If you
have your webpage or ftp on cran (you probably do), it will be
down. irc will be down. Your developers accounts will be down.

And we'll lose our beautiful uptime. :)
 11:31pm  up 213 days,  9:57,  6 users,  load average: 0.00, 0.01, 0.00

I can shuffle your website or ftp site over to belegost for that
evening, if it's crucial that it remain up. Contact me if you need
this.

And feel free to forward this to any of your developers or
mailing lists so they can be warned.

Thanks,
--Roger
