Possible Downtime Over the Holidays
Earlier this year, I moved leftlibertarian.org from shared hosting to a virtual private server. Not only did I move it to a server I’d have to play a more active role in maintaining, I moved it to a server that I’d have to provision from scratch. Over the last 8 months I’ve learned a lot about running my own server. This is good, but in the process of learning, I’ve made a mess of my server. It’s very disorganized, with custom compilations of software are broken (did you notice when the header turned from red to blue? I messed up the PHP compillation and never fixed it) and a lot of cruft that could stand to be removed.
Now, I’ve bought a new slice that I’ve been able to set up using all the lessons I’ve learned. I plan on moving all my sites over to this new server and incorporate some changes into the way they’re set up to make all the sites easier to maintain. Consequently, you may experience some downtime over the holiday season while I accomplish this. I plan to have everything ready to go by the beginning of 2008.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
