sources.redhat.com downtime

[Jonathan Larmour]

It's not much warning, but it's just been revealed that the long promised 
upgrade of sources.redhat.com will take place this coming Saturday at:

10am PST
  1pm EST
  6pm GMT
  7pm CET

and no doubt other timezones :-).

It will probably not return until Sunday morning. At a minimum it will be 
three hours if everything goes well, but don't count on it. If it's not 
up, it's not up.

All services will be off-line at that point: no cvs, web, ftp, or mailing 
lists. We can't even hear you scream ;-).

It's definitely worth it as it will be a move to a much newer, faster and 
larger machine.

That should make for a quiet weekend :).

And one with a lot more net bandwidth, too.  It's better in every way.

Now, if *that* doesn't jinx me, nothing will.

For some people, maybe.  :-)

Are they going to upgrade the cvs server to a new version of cvs also?

I remember the current one has an annoying bug when making diff (If i
remember correctly...)
