Caesar on #linux-aus on Freenode

Details

I'll be performing a move of all of the Mailman lists for lists.linux.org.au from the hastily slapped together copy of digital running inside of a Xen instance hosted by IVT (thanks, Jon!) to a brand-new installation in a Xen instance called morton.linux.org.au on the hardware donated to Linux Australia by HP sometime after linux.conf.au 2006.

I'll also be moving linux.org.au mail and local mailboxes from digital morton.

All shell users of digital have already had their home directories migrated from digital to morton and been individually notified.

I don't expect the outage to be anywhere near as long as specified, but I'm reserving that window of time for any problems, rollbacks, troubleshooting, etc.

I'll monitor #linux-aus after I've moved the MXes and enabled mail delivery on morton, for any issues that arise.
