Hello all, at the moment it is difficult to inform our toolusers (people that use our tools) about planed maintainces, downtimes and other important things.
So I had the idea today that a kind of global sitenotice (like the one in the wikimedia-projects) would be nice and a easy solution for that. The easiest way to implement it is IMHO a simple textfile, that toolauthors may/can/should/whatever insert in their tools. I created such a file, it can be found at /var/www/sitenotice on wolfsbane and via http://toolserver.org/sitenotice. For normal the file would be empty or contains only a empty div-container. If the roots know about a planed downtime or an important change, they would insert a short text in the file and our toolusers would be informed. The setup is differend to status.toolserver.org, because status lists only the current status, not a futuraly status. Please comment at the toolserver-mailinglist and tell me/us if you would implement the sitenotice in your tools. Sincerly, DaB. -- wp-blog.de
