freebsd announce - Jan 2013 - New freebsd-ops-announce mailing list

Hi,

We have created a new -announce list for for people interested changes
and issues related to the FreeBSD.org project infrastructure.

The FreeBSD.org clusteradm teams, and other relevant FreeBSD.org
teams, will use this list to announce issues to the FreeBSD.org
infrastructure which has impact on end users, but are not important
enough to send to the main freebsd-announce list. The list is
moderated and expected to be low traffic.

You can sign up for the new list at:
https://lists.FreeBSD.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ops-announce

The kind of issues we expect to announce on the new list is:

* svn0.us-west.FreeBSD.org and svnweb.FreeBSD.org are currently having
performance issues due to pressing nullfs harder than most normal
people do (a bugfix is in the works).
* We now have SSL/TLS certificates for HTTPS on www.FreeBSD.org,
wiki.FreeBSD.org, svnweb.FreeBSD.org, and lists.FreeBSD.org.
* wiki.FreeBSD.org now redirects all users to HTTPS, so all traffic is
encrypted.

and so on. All of the above mentioned things happened within the last week.
