Jon, I think we both lost the Wordpress debate buddy, time to capitulate haha.
Hmm well if Stian's not to be contacted unless there's an emergency I'd say 
that's a no haha!

I think Mike came later after other dudes worked on it for years and burned out.
BTW Don't worry Mike I got your latest msg via dev list and your previously 
missing message decided to arrive (from dev list) today a day late too.. and 
into my spam folder lmao. Well played yahoo well played..
I'm thinking about switching to Internode.. iinet are driving me nuts..
If you guys are doing all this website work on SF I guess I better figure out 
how to edit webpages on SF lol.. took me long enough to figure out how to do 
the website changes on the github copy but if that's missing out on the latest 
stuff then I better figure out SF lol. Do I need any special programs installed 
on my comp? Or does SF have a built in HTML/text file editor like github has?

Regards
Blake

 My concern is this. Is said person holding the domain still interested in the 
project and being involved. If not its best to easily have the domain 
transferred to someone who is more active like Michael for example.
@Michael is freecol your baby that you have developed from the ground up?

Betreff: Re: [Freecol-developers] Website fixesHi Winter, You are worried about 
breaking the domain, there is an easy solution to that you would need to add a 
CNAME (Alias) record on DNS which will point to the .io site so if i go to the 
.org it would redirect me to the alias .io Jonathan Aquilina On Fri, Jan 3,

Hi, a few days ago when reading SF webserver documentation, I saw that you 
could switch over from PHP5 to PHP7.It's just that we are completely HTML only 
without a single .php file remaining -- that's why I saw no use in doing it.If 
you switch over the domain would change from .net to .io, possibly breaking our 
.org domain, depending on how it is configured. This might also break some 
direct links to the .net subdomain somewhere.We would get https on the .io 
domain, but certificates are bound to the domain not ip, thats why I doubt it 
would work correctly on our .org domain.There is still some old files on the 
ftp for the webserver in the directory above the htdocs directory for the 
website -- these will need a backup before a switchover!I would not click the 
switch over button, without Stian and/or whoever controls the .org domain 
giving his ok. Greetings wintertime  Gesendet: Freitag, 03. Januar 2020 um

Betreff: Re: [Freecol-developers] Website fixesLol, bizarre. Yay for Yahoo 
filtering. I don't know that the forums would be moved. I think we may just 
leave those as is on SF. overall I really don't see a need to transition 
absolutely everything over to github from source forge, just primarily the code 
base and the website. And also probably the ticket tracker to GitHub issues. I 
don't really see a need to abandon SF entirely. David On Thu, Jan 2, 2020, 9:26

Quite so.  I wish people who want to move stuff around would
at the very least come up with a plan that includes the hard
problems, like how to move the forums.  The website is easy.

That is a timely remark.  Yesterday while I was trying to work out who has
permission to update the SF website I came across something new[1]:

                Your website is currently hosted at
                http://freecol.sourceforge.net with PHP 5.4

                To update to https://freecol.sourceforge.io and PHP 7.x, click 
the button below.
                There will be a small delay for it to take effect. You may 
switch back if needed.

I propose to click the button.  There is also some interesting stuff about
github connections which I have yet to read.  More soon.


And in the special D Blakeley section:-):  Blake, yahoo is not
accepting mail from my ISP, who are sending me messages like:

        This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification.

        THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE ONLY.

        YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESEND YOUR MESSAGE.

        Delivery to the following recipients has been delayed.

              <d_blake...@yahoo.com>

        The reason for the problem:
        4.3.2 - Not accepting messages at this time 421-'4.7.0 [TSS04] Messages 
from 150.101.137.19 temporarily deferred due to user complaints - 4.16.55.1; 
see https://help.yahoo.com/kb/postmaster/SLN3434.html'

Given that I am with internode who have won a bunch of customer service
awards, and you are with yahoo, who... hasn't, I am guessing the problem
is at your end.  Now we just need someone to quote this email so Blake sees it.

Cheers,
Mike Pope
