---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2005 17:48:08 -0400 From: James E. Blair <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: The FSF is moving
The Free Software Foundation will be moving to a new office on Friday April 29, 2005. Starting Friday morning (GMT-4) and extending through the weekend, the following FSF services will be unavailable: * fencepost.gnu.org: GNU project shell server * lists.gnu.org, lists.nongnu.org: Mailing list services * mail.gnu.org: FSF/GNU mail server * order.fsf.org: On-line ordering system * rt.gnu.org: FSF/GNU request tracking system The FSF has backup mail servers that are located off-site which will be able to accept mail during the downtime. This means that mail to gnu.org, nongnu.org, and fsf.org addresses (including mailing lists) will be delayed but will be delivered. The FSF is releasing a new version of the GPL! Unfortunately, it's not version 3 yet. Instead, it's the third revision of version 2. Like the previous revision, it will differ only in that it will contain FSF's new address. This version will be available and effective on Friday, April 29, 2005. When you next get the chance, please go through your source code and replace the old copy of the GPL with the new version. Also, old notices should be replaced with new ones. The following shell command will do this for you in a sloppy way; its results should be carefully checked: find . -type f -exec sed -ie 's/59 Temple Place, Suite 330/51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor/;s/02111-1307/02110-1301/;' {} ';' We will also be releasing new revisions of the LGPL and the FDL. _______________________________________________ GNU Maintainers Announcement List [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-prog _______________________________________________ Freefont-announce mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freefont-announce
