Hello, FYI, I know most of you may have no idea what wm-bot is, but I don't know any better channel to use for this kind of announcement so, I had to move wm-bot to a new instance as old one was using deprecated OS, which means, that anyone who is using its "netcat" feature - relaying TCP messages directly to IRC channels https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wm-bot#Relay_of_messages_from_scripts_and_other_tools will have to change the IP / hostname.
To avoid this kind of unnecessary work in the future: is it possible to create some VIP in cloud environment so that I can simply move this address to a new instance when I perform this kind of migration? Also, as many users are using the hostname instead of IP, what's the best way to move the hostname? Would it be possible to implement some instance renaming feature?
