Update Stream
by Marcus Denker 12 Mar '06

12 Mar '06

Hi, The update stream (updates.squeakfoundation.org) is residing on an old server of internetone... we dragged moving that long enough that on Friday, I didn't have ftp access anymore. But Cees saved the day and moved the files over to box2. I've put it here: http://ftp.squeak.org/updates/ I think we don't need a dedicated DNS alias for them... I can just put this into the update mechanism of the image, and we can easily update the files over sftp. (of course this brakes the old code in the image that allowed posting directly from the image... that needs unencrypted FTP). Ok with that? As the "european mirror" is down for months, I will set up a mirror at the squeak-ev.de server (it's hosted at the same company, though...). Marcus

I have now setup aliases for http://planetes.squeak.org/ http://planetarchive.squeak.org/ http://planetmisc.squeak.org/ to point to appropriate sites hosted by Simon and Simon has sorted it out at his end so these URLs work now.

Box-Admins Team Report for February, 2006
by Ken Causey 06 Mar '06

06 Mar '06

The box-admins team is reponsible for seeing that the community shared server is maintained and setting up any new features to be hosted on that server. In February we setup a new UK Smalltalk mailing list at Bryce Kampjes' request. http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/uksmalltalk We had to restart source.squeakfoundation.org a couple of times. On another occasion the box mysteriously restarted and many of the Squeak process had to be manually restarted since we had never gotten around to setting them up under any init system. The FTP daemon also failed to start and had to be manually started. A location was setup for Exupery related files on the FTP server. An account was created for the News team to develop a website for the management of the Weekly Squeak News. I want to thank the community for the monetary support needed to fund these boxes and remind them that the bills continue to appear and that you can currently contribute to the hosting bills by going to http://discuss.squeakfoundation.org/ and clicking on the 'donate' button at the top right. Note that a donation here may be used for other Squeak Foundation services including but not limited to development, development infrastructure, and promotion of Squeak. The services being hosted have continued to grow and include (but are not limited to): http://www.squeak.org/ SqueakMap - http://map.squeak.org/ http://ftp.squeak.org/ http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/ http://discuss.squeakfoundation.org/ http://source.squeakfoundation.org/ http://map.squeak.org/ and DNS services for squeak.org and squeakfoundation.org domain names. Ken
