Todo list, keep in mind this mailing list is hosted on the box about to be decommissioned.
Today: 1) Point DNS records to the new name servers. Who has access to the registrar to do these moves today? - adium.im - adiumxtras.com - adiumx.com - cocoaforge.com - I have this, if the db gets moved 2) Getting data over to Jordan. 3) Jordan configures the new server. He gave me access to it to at least have one backup for now 4) Someone logs into cpanel if they can on the old server and looks for any other configurations. Mail forwarding, whatever. This is probably all in the backup but it's probably harder to figure out than looking at cpanel. Tomorrow 5) Decide what to do about the minis. 6) Decide whether to keep phpbb and cocoaforge forums or forward cocoaforge to github. I think 1-4 are the most important.
