Hi all,
This Friday, 13th April, stanley.ox.compsoc.net will be moving from its current location with C&W to a new home with Community Internet [0], who have kindly offered to host it.
The server will be down between midday and 6pm. During this time, there will be no shell access to the server (obviously), and the website[1] may also be down. For those of you with mail aliases with us, mail will not be forwarded in that time but will be queued on our backup MXen, so you'll get a nice deluge of spam when stanley returns and the DNS settles down.
I think that covers it - back to lasers and other such fun things.
Michael

I'm happy to report that the server has been moved successfully. DNS should be updated properly, and stanley is once again serving users, websites and email.
The server will be down between midday and 6pm.
Unfortunately, it went down about 11 hours too early, for reasons still unknown. A nice sense of timing there, anyway.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Luke Cartey, who drove me all the way to Leeds and back to find the nondescript datacentre and pick up stanley.
If there are any problems/queries, please get in touch with us at support@ox.compsoc.net.
