[M3devel] Modula3.org Server Crash

[Michael Anderson]

Hi Jay,

I've adjusted the perms for the history file. The 'deprecated..'  
message is annoying but harmless. I will be tuning up the scripts in  
the course of the next couple of days.

>> Hello Modula3 Users, Developers,
>>
>> Earlier this week, our Modula3 development and web server
>> birch.elegosoft.com suffered a sudden and catastrophic hard drive
>> failure, coinciding with a problem of unrelated origins which rendered
>> a portion of our filesystem backups unusable.
>>
>> The status of birch now:
>>
>> -The cm3 cvs repository is safe, intact, and back online. The data is
>> up to date, but configuration is not quite as current and will need
>> some tweaking. Commit email notifications aren't working quite right
>> yet. If anybody happens to have a halfway recently checked-out
>> /usr/local/CVSROOT, I'd love to get my hands on it.
>>
>> -The cvs pserver is available and cvsweb is up.
>>
>> -The website is up, albeit with a considerable number of broken links,
>> which will be repaired as other services and data come online.
>>
>> -I'll be working on Tinderbox next.
>>
>> I'm hoping to get everything halfway back to normal by early next week.
>> Sorry for the chaos, thanks for being patient.
>>
>> -Michael Anderson
