Hello,
I'd like to inform you that the FreeType DNS and CVS servers are
going to change in the next few days. I sincerely hope that the
DNS change will solve the incredible problems we're experiencing
with "www.freetype.org".
All services are going to be transered to the current web+ftp+mail
server for FreeType.
Here's the schedule:
1. The CVS server is transfered first (and the address of
of cvs.freetype.org updated accordingly)
FOR ALL PEOPLE HAVING PENDING COMMITS IN THEIR LOCAL
DIRECTORIES, PLEASE COMMIT TONIGHT.
the new server is already accessible using the
following temporary CVSROOT:
:pserver:address@hidden:/cvsroot
where "XXXXXX" is either "anonymous" or your cvs login
for people having one. Note that the new server doesn't
accept write requests (i.e. commits).
write access will be disabled on the old server
and enabled on the new one tomorrow (Friday)
afternoon. (any meanwhile changes to the old server
will be transfered before the switch).
Read access will still be available on the old server
though to avoid problems with the IP address change..
2. The CVSROOT is going to change (a few days later) from:
:pserver:address@hidden:/cvsroot
to:
:pserver:address@hidden:/cvs/freetype
note however that the old CVSROOT will continue to
work (as a symlink) for about a week and then be deleted..
3. The DNS is transfered to www.freetype.org, and we'll pray
that everything works well this time..
4. The old server is disconnected on Monday or Tuesday.
