Fwd: [NOTICE] people.apache.org web space is moving to home.apache.org

[Andrew Purtell <ap...@apache.org>]

Please note that the infrastructure team is making a significant change.
people.apache.org will be going away to be replaced with home.apache.org,
but only for hosting public web content, and only accessible (by
committers/members) via sftp.

Some of us, like myself, have been hosting release candidate binaries on
people.apache.org. Any of us doing that will need to switch to publishing
release candidates on dist.apache.org instead.

We have also in the past used people.apache.org to host temporary maven
repositories. I checked root poms for our active branches. Only 0.94 will
be affected when people.apache.org goes away. That may produce build
failure so if we will make another 0.94 release we should include a fix for
this.

Subject: [NOTICE] people.apache.org web space is moving to home.apache.org
To: committers@apache.org


Hi folks,
as the subject says, people.apache.org is being decommissioned soon, and
personal web space is being moved to a new home, aptly named
home.apache.org ( https://home.apache.org/ )

IMPORTANT:
If you have things on people.apache.org that you would like to retain,
please make a copy of it and move it to home.apache.org. (note, you will
have to make a folder called 'public_html' there, for items to show up
under https://home.apache.org/~yourID/ ).

We will _NOT_ be moving your data for you. There is simply too much old
junk data on minotaur (the current people.apache.org machine) for it to
make sense to rsync it across, so we have made the decision that moving
data is up to each individual committer.

The new host, home.apache.org, will ONLY be for web space, you will not
have shell access to the machine (but you can copy data to it using SFTP
and your SSH key). Access to modify LDAP records (for project chairs)
will be moved to a separate host when the time comes.

There will be a 3 month grace period to move your data across. After
this time span (March 1st, 2016), minotaur will no longer serve up
personal web space, and visits to people.apache.org will be redirected
to home.apache.org.

With regards,
Daniel on behalf of the Apache Infrastructure Team.

PS: All replies to this should go to infrastructure@apache.org
