Re: [eclipse-dev] Outage Notice - Saturday, March 26th 2005

Randy, which API are you referring to?

Re: [eclipse-dev] Outage Notice - Saturday, March 26th 2005







GEF intends to declare M6 on the same day as the platform.  But, we do 
have some concern in that we are trying to expose M6-planned API that 
doesn't exist yet. 

But, there are more components downstream from us (and EMF, etc.), so I 
was speaking for projects with valid arguments for scheduling a 1 week 
stagger.  The second week was just a recommended buffer for what-ifs.

If this were to be delayed, please consider the downstream components too, 
which are declaring M6 slighty behind the platform itself.  We were 
affected by the last-minute FTP access changes which happened last 
milestone and broke our build process, delaying our M5 declaration. 

The best time to do maintenance is probably 2 weeks after a platform 
milestone has been declared.

You must have misread; only incoming mail will be affected. Outgoing 
notifications will be uninterrupted.

For what it's worth, CVS and e-mail will be migrated over quite fast. 
The new servers are already configured to accept the data; I just need 
to shutdown CVS for the time it takes to move 18+ GB of CVS files from 
one machine to another. It's the weird stuff, like ViewCVS, the mailing 
lists and the mailing list archives that prompted me to advertise an 
outage window of 24 hrs.

The IBM server that dev.eclipse.org is running on must be returned to 
IBM by April 1st, so it's either I move this Saturday or during the week 
next week.
