> Need to update release guide
> people.apache.org web space is moving to home.apache.org
> Hi folks,
> as the subject says, people.apache.org is being decommissioned soon, and
> personal web space is being moved to a new home, aptly named
> home.apache.org ( https://home.apache.org/ )
> IMPORTANT:
> If you have things on people.apache.org that you would like to retain,
> please make a copy of it and move it to home.apache.org. (note, you will
> have to make a folder called 'public_html' there, for items to show up
> under https://home.apache.org/~yourID/ ).
> We will _NOT_ be moving your data for you. There is simply too much old
> junk data on minotaur (the current people.apache.org machine) for it to
> make sense to rsync it across, so we have made the decision that moving
> data is up to each individual committer.
> The new host, home.apache.org, will ONLY be for web space, you will not
> have shell access to the machine (but you can copy data to it using SFTP
> and your SSH key). Access to modify LDAP records (for project chairs)
> will be moved to a separate host when the time comes.
> There will be a 3 month grace period to move your data across. After
> this time span (March 1st, 2016), minotaur will no longer serve up
> personal web space, and visits to people.apache.org will be redirected
> to home.apache.org.
> With regards,
> Daniel on behalf of the Apache Infrastructure Team.
> PS: All replies to this should go to infrastruct...@apache.org
> AND
> There is a staging area on the dist server for just this purpose:
> https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/<project>
> Upload the RC to that instead.
> This is much better than the home directory on people because there is
> no need to copy the files again when the vote succeeds.
> Instead you can use svn/svnmucc to move the files to the dist release
> directory (same repo, so files don't travel across the network).
> Also there can be proper traceability of the RC artifacts; just
> include the revision number of the dev tree in the vote e-mail.
> =====second mail=====
> Dear Apache Committer,
> An infrastructure volunteer has stepped forward to automate the
> migration of public_html content from minotaur.apache.org (the old
> people.a.o) to home.apache.org (the new people.a.o). This e-mail is to
> let you know how the migration was undertaken so you can understand the
> results and take any further action if necessary.
> Data was copied from /home/*/public_html on minotaur.a.o to a temporary
> location on home.a.o. Note that only publicly readable content was
> copied. Anything that would not have been served by httpd was not copied.
> There was approximately 500GB of content. That was rather more than the
> infrastructure team expected. A quick review of the largest files
> identified that much of this volume was due to files being hosted in
> committer's public_html directories that should be located elsewhere
> (e.g. RCs, nightly builds, etc.). The personal web space section [1] of
> the new committers guide has been updated to provide additional guidance
> on what is, and is not, acceptable use.
> After the first copy to the temporary location had completed, a second
> copy was created for the filtering process. Using a second copy for the
> filtering means that any files filtered in error can be restored from
> the first copy should the need arise. The first copy of all the content
> will be removed after a month or so.
> The infra team then filtered the second copy (primarily based on file
> size) and removed the inappropriate content. The removed content was
> primarily releases, RCs, snapshots, copies of web sites, installers and
> Maven repos.
> After the review, the remaining content was copied to the individual
> public_html directories if, and only if, that directory either did not
> exist or was currently completely empty. In the end, around 110GB of
> data was added to new public_html directories.
> Users who have already created their public_html content on home.a.o but
> would like access to a copy of their data from minotaur.a.o should
> contact the infrastructure team.
> Generally the infrastructure team expects individual public_html
> directories to be of the order of a few hundred MB. This is not a hard
> limit and will not be enforced as such. However, committers using in
> excess of this may be required to justify why the additional storage is
> required.
> Please direct any questions to infrastruct...@apache.org (Reply-To set)
