- We're following the agenda!!!
- USENET feeds are insane
- full binaries feed, 5T a day, or so
- our very small, partial feed is hundreds of G per day (I think)
- volume is troubling our machines, running out of space, lots of iowait
- We have a machine on the freenode network
- ours is HUBBARD
- that's no good
- they name them after SciFi/Fantasy authors
- we should petition for a different one
- the Scientologists have slandered CMU professors
- DNS for a guy
- poor guy, confused by mkasick
- if have .org or .edu, we will do virtual hosting
- prefer web site to be in some existing place in AFS
- digression, now WWW-HOSTING exists
- Lots of organizations have been approaching us asking about wikis
- we do have this wiki system thing
- we are using it right now...
- it's kind of cool; if it doesn't work bother rlane
- a lot of people don't really like MoinMoin
- hard to find wikis... my.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu, who'd think that
- other ideas...? probably worse
- Google for "CMU wiki" or "CMU organization wiki" results in a
bunch of other orgs self-maintained wikis
- rlane, unpacked MoinMoin
- lousy wireless
- RoboClub, uses some python thing, writes to AFS
- now they want Drupal, having difficulties running the installer in
their web space
- wiki committee needs more members
- Lots of stuff, from Aarons
- iRobot move, stuff from Aaron
- truck, couldn't happen, Brian, could bring it in a month or so
- likely not enough room in B6
- Keith, points out that we could potentially do external self-storage
off campus
- also, CMU has a warehouse
- how will we make room, for delivery?
- for one, we don't want Brian to bring thing we know we won't use,
to avoid wasting his time
- discussion
- Sarge, has gone from most Debian mirrors
- also, old doesn't have PHP packages roboclub needs, for example
- how's COBALT?
- jwatzman: seems to work great, I haven't had any problems
- kbare: suggest we make another machine that looks like it, make
unix.club point to new machines, state that folks with problems
should connect to unix-old.club
- should start upgrading things, perhaps willy-nilly
- what about lenny?
- Xen's going away... ish... Citrix
- libvirt can use various backends
- lenny appears to have Xen kernels (for both Dom0 and DomU),
hypervisor, tools, etc.
- Switch from NewEgg, fun miscommunications, etc.
