Admin Notice: Scheduled Server Downtime

[Mark Kretschmann]

Heya,

I'm writing to inform you that our main server which is hosting
amarok.kde.org and konversation.kde.org is currently having a
scheduled (more or less) downtime, due to a move to more powerful
server hardware. The timing isn't perfect; we did initially plan to
inform you *before* the move, but unfortunately there has been a
misunderstanding with our service provider.

Anyway, the good news is that the IP address will stay the same, so
that we expect a rather smooth move with hopefully less than 24h
downtime. Our admin Paleo is currently hard at work :)

The new server will be more powerful than the old one, which is needed
to scale with the increasing popularity of our site. Just for
comparison:

Old server:
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+
2 Gigs RAM

New server:
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6000+
6 Gigs RAM


Thanks for understanding, and sorry for the inconvenience.
