Excellent! Welcome to the team. When you get a chance send me your public ssh key.
There is only one box right now (which you can access with any of the various hostnames, squeak.org being a good choice, with some exceptions). It runs Debian Testing. As far as how to go about this we really need to chat a bit. In the past we backed up the entire box under a incremental backup scheme. I'm not sure if that's going to be a valid option any more due to available backup sapce, but I haven't really analyzed the situation. One issue is that our new backup space only offers FTP access apparently (we were using rsync previously).
I forget exactly where you are located Chris but I seem to remember that you and I share a timezone (I'm in Bowling Green, KY, Central Time). Do you have the time and capability to come to #squeak on weekdays? It would be good to chat about this further in realtime. Let me know when would work for you.

Yeah, I'll join the team. Do you have a list of boxes and their configurations (hardware, OS's). We really need to get that backup issue fixed. I don't know how much time I'll have to work on stuff, but I have created a new backup utility for safely synchronizing directory trees between computers that I've been using/testing the last couple of months, it might be an option.

Well, my backup utility actually uses FTP to synchronize a specified target directory to a specified source directory.. I'm still doing cross-platform testing to make sure everything works flawlessly, but I should be done soon.
I'm currently spending most of my time on the east coast (Florida) even though my permanent residence is in Kansas City, MO. I'm pretty tight on time, but I could try to meet you on IRC. I'll be traveling this week so how about next week (April 4th or later).

That's fine, I'm pretty busy right now as well. Just let me know when you have some time. Thanks!
