[Bioc-devel] hedgehog Subversion server upgrade Tuesday 9/30

[Dan Tenenbaum]

Hello Bioconductor developers,

On Tuesday 9/30 at 8:00 AM (Seattle time), the Subversion server on hedgehog will
stop for two hours until 10:00 AM.

hedgehog is the svn server for all Bioconductor packages, so this will
mean you will be unable to commit or check out repositories during this
time. If you are using the Git-Svn bridge, it will also not
be syncing during this time but should catch up afterwards.

The purpose of this downtime is to move the Subversion service to
new faster hardware, a new OS (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS), and new versions
of Subversion (v1.8.8) and Apache2 (v2.4.7).

The server itself will still be named hedgehog, but the IP address
will change. Part of the 2-hour downtime is to allow changes to DNS
to take place, moving the name from one address to the other.

Everything else about Subversion on hedgehog will remain the same.
If you are still using this service, you should not have to make any
changes due to this upgrade.

Please reply to the list if you have any questions about this.
