we test murphy's law by moving one of our main servers to a new location on 2021-06-24, starting at 11:45 UTC (AKA 13:45 CEST).

Several of our services won't be available during the migration period, incl:

• deb.grml.org (Debian repository)
• Grml.org nameserver
• git.grml.org (Git service)
• mail.grml.org (Mailing, incl. mailing lists)
• web (grml.org)

If things go horribly wrong, we'll provide further updates via IRC (#grml on irc.oftc.net) and twitter (https://twitter.com/grmlproject). *fingers_crossed*

And where will be the success reported? ;-)

Glad to see that someone is actually reading my mails and caring! 8-) Sorry for mentioning this only on twitter (see https://twitter.com/grmlproject/status/1408040997523709952), so here we are (and in more than 280 chars):

This had to be delayed by our provider, as for the new colocation some hardware parts are missing at our current server. The provider is looking into options for providing us a new server at their new colocation. (The underlying issue why we're moving things at all is that on the colocation we're currently hosted we have IPv6 troubles, amusingly no one complained yet :p)

Once we get feedback from our provider how we could proceed from here, we'll set up a new schedule and announce it again. (A big overhaul of our infrastructure is long overdue anyways, and I hope we manage to get this done after our next new release, that we plan to do in 2021-07)
