FIXED! Re: About infra maintenance [was: "Re: openmoko.org servers"]
agni got shiny new hardware, so all downtime problems should be fixed now :-D https://monitor.openmoko.org/munin/agni/agni.openmoko.org.html also admin trac is back again, so in case any other part of OM infra has whatever issue, please consider https://admin-trac.openmoko.org/trac/login (if you're no friend of the low overhead approach to ping me on IRC, as suggested before) Cheers jOERG ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

According to Roh the standard way to report any problems with openmoko infrastructure is via https://admin-trac.openmoko.org/ Alas this obviously won't work when it's exactly the machine running this trac that is down. So on freenode IRC you /join #openmoko-cdevel and proceed as suggested, and if you manage to ping me, you'll receive an answer. I think these are two feasible ways to deal with issues regarding infra, and one of them will work. No need to invent your own procedure, even though you might think it's more effective, there are reasons it probably isn't. Thanks for taking notice.

It's ironic that you mention #openmoko-cdevel. Some months ago I asked in #openmoko-cdevel when git.openmoko.org was down. Nobody responded at all, let alone after some hours. I also asked in #openmoko-cdevel prior to sending my email a couple of days ago. Nobody knew who was maintaining the openmoko servers. The fact that the IP addresses were still registered with FIC was pointed out and it was agreed that this was a problem. Then I sent my email to this list. If the best advice for when there are problems with openmoko.org hosts, is to bring the subject in #openmoko-cdevel then we really are in trouble :-) Could you possibly provide email addresses for roh and whoever else is responsible for the openmoko.org servers so that everyone knows who to contact?

Anyway, best advice when any problems with OM infra hit: * join #openmoko (or #openmoko-cdevel) on freenode.net, * say "hello" and describe the issue, ask what can be / has been done and whom to ping (typical post: "Hi! wiki.openmoko.org down for anybody else?") * WAIT until somebody answers - this may be minutes to several hours. (you'll always get my attention when you ping my nick "DocScrutinizer", though usually most users in this channel have an idea of what's going on and how to proceed, and some are even better suited to deal with infra problems than I am) Roh can also be found on freenode, though I suggest not to immediately pester him directly but rather first ask in #openmoko-cdevel cheers jOERG ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
