hi everyone! a happy new year to all folks on the gregorian calendar, and a generic happy next 365 days to everyone else! the music department at columbia university are taking the list server down for an upgrade on the coming weekend, so expect interruptions for linux-audio-dev, linux-audio-user and linux-audio-announce. you will probably want to keep a copy of all the mails you send over the weekend, so that you can re-send them in case they end up in the bit bucket. let me take this opportunity to thank douglas irving repetto for many years of painless hosting and friendly help, and the entire music dept. for their generous donation of iron and bandwidth. kudos, guys! rumor has it that the new list server will be an os x machine. hopefully this will make the lists even more user-friendly and aesthetically pleasing than before ;) all the best, jörn -------- Original Message -------- Subject: music.columbia.edu server downtime Date: Mon, 2 Jan 2006 16:21:13 -0500 From: douglas irving repetto <douglas(a)music.columbia.edu> To: douglas(a)music.columbia.edu Hello, We will be upgrading the music.columbia.edu server this weekend. Hopefully all of the work will be done on Saturday, but it may extend into Sunday. music.columbia.edu will not be available during the downtime. That means no websites will be served, no email will be sent/delivered, no mailing lists will function, etc. I'll send an update later this week with info about some changes that you'll see on the new server.
