I guess we can call it a hardware upgrade.  The motherboard is having some

upgrade, too.

I don't know when it will be back, but hopefully the new equipment will be
available and installed this evening.

Sorry for the inconvenience...

 Thanks for your great services to the D community.

I'm happy to do it, and will continue to endeavor to make it more reliable
than it's been in recent months.  Especially when 1.1.07 is coming.

Don't apologize.  You give us this valuable resource, with all costs from your
own pocket, 
and then apologize to us for doing what you must to make it even better? 
Doesn't make 
sense.  :)  Thank you, Brad.  (Don't think I'd ever bothered to say that
before.  So I 
/do/ apologize.)

Hi Brad,
I'll rent a dedicated root server until the end of this year mostly 
because I need a remote database server (PostGreSQL, Hyperfile)

I am willing to share this Server with the D community in case that 
somebody interested. /share means 50%

Technical info : http://www.hetzner.de/rootserver_en.html *See DS 3000*

Thanks for the offer.  However, I have a more permanent hosting arrangement in
place, and will be moving to that environment before the end of the year
(hopefully).

An update:

My friend in Houston (where the server is located) attempted to replace the
failed motherboard with a new one, and found the memory the store recommended
with the purchase was the wrong kind.  He will attempt to fix this today.

After the end of the year, I will also be on-board with setting up some
mirrors so the content is not too far out of reach.

That's good news.  Thanks for all the hard work Brad.  Sorry to hear the 
old mobo is no more - she was a good server, and will be missed.

As far as mirrors go, would these be sourceforge-style mirrors for 
downloads?  I think just a download/release annex of some kind would be 
killer for ironing out useage and downtime problems. :)

Probably at first.  Although for more frequently-accessed projects, a SVN
mirror may make sense as well, esp. if /trunk is fairly active.

The server is back up and running.  DNS servers should be propagating the
changes over the next few hours.

If you're impatient, edit your hosts file:

76.17.85.65   (www|svn).dsource.org

And don't just type the IP address into a browser - it won't work, because I
use virtual hosts.

Enjoy...
