I follow private@ more closely, but project@ is okay with me (and I noticed the diffmon output, nice). > To sum up: > - removed a lot of old/obsolete stuff, > - trimmed system to the minimum > (in term of services, by contrast you have Emacs everywhere ;)), > - merged arch/download/homepage > - moved Subversion to the 2nd RAID array to balance the I/O load, > - removed jobs from 'bart' and 'lisa' so that VMs can become > independent and can be moved to VServer (TODO: cvs), > - moved 'members' to VServer > - upgrade some apache v1 to apache v2 Wow, great work. I never had the guts to proceed with it knowing how much work it was and how hard it would be to find enough continuous time to do it properly.

I can help with that, I litteraly upgraded a hundred Debians (and more). Note: this server (Petzi) is in transition mode from infrastructure point of view. It still has a serial console, but it is also about to have an IPMI module which will help a lot with full remote management. It just happend that the IPMI modules we found (Tyan M3290) have both sw and hw bugs and we need to fix them... For emergencies, if I'm not pingable you may globally ask for help on #bearstech/Freenode. We are 6 adminsys, most of the time one is awake :). _______________________________________________ Project mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/project
