One more reason for moving is that we’re not comfortable with Linode’s
security.

Three main reasons:

* we currently pay for Linode, and Rackspace is donating the server to us
* the majority of Clojars outages over the last year have been due to
DDoS attacks on Linode
* the existing server is a collection of configurations that were
edited in place over the years, so would be very difficult to recreate
in the event of a catastrophic failure. The new server is based off an
ansible setup[1] that makes it much easier to recreate (and rollback).
