Re: [Toolserver-l] What will happen with the Toolserver domain?
Hey, this would be very easy from the technical side. The host that does this is not part of the cluster but sits in the US. Still this host needs some sort of maintenance as long as its online so the perspective would probably be to reimport the data somewhere. Adding Coren so he can keep it in mind.
