moving to new hardware

I'll be moving all the facilities behind jakarta.apache.org to new
hardware over the next week.  Those with commit access will get their new
login info shortly.  The transition will be almost entirely transparant,
but there's one nit in the way we defined things early on that needs to be
fixed - that was the use of the name dev.apache.org in the CVSROOT entry.

We gave you the CVSROOT variable of:

  :pserver:anoncvs@dev.apache.org:/home/cvspublic

we really should have given you for CVSROOT:

  :pserver:anoncvs@jakarta.apache.org:/home/cvspublic

*When* we announce the CVS tree switchover (I'm thinking Tuesday evening),
you'll need to change your CVSROOT to this new string.  Also, the CVSROOT
gets embedded in the file CVS/Repository in each subdir in your source.
So, when the changeover happens, you will need to run the following
script from the base of your CVS directory:

  find . -name Repository \
    -exec perl -pi.bak -e 's/dev.apache/jakarta.apache/' {} \;
    
This should apply the new CVSROOT to your existing checked-out copies of
the repository.

If you've not got any local modifications, or this appears to not work,
you can simply check out a new copy if you'd like.
