Just a bit of background. Some BALUG sites may be impacted soon, but *not* www.balug.org or balug.org itself. See: http://lists.balug.org/pipermail/balug-admin-balug.org/2014-July/002233.html for *which* sites will (and won't) be impacted As to some background and why, have a look at: http://linuxmafia.com/pipermail/sf-lug/2015q3/011330.html And, for the BALUG specific bits I left out of the above: > From: "Michael Paoli" <Michael.Paoli(a)cal.berkeley.edu> > Subject: Re: vicki (exodus) & GoGrid/Datapipe > Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2015 03:14:08 -0700 > BALUG: what balug has on the virtual machine atop vicki is certainly > highly useful and convenient, and would be relative pain to be without, > but we could survive without, at least for a bit, and have in fact > relocated it (temporarily) elsewhere in past. > > What BALUG does *not* have atop the (VM on the) vicki host: > www.balug.org, and balug.org itself aren't on that host, but other > sites/subdomains are, e.g. [www.]{archive,wiki}.balug.org, among others. > > DNS - only for some subdomains, again not balug.org. itself.

For those that may have been wondering ... the BALUG logo: http://www.balug.org/images/balug/logo.gif The apparently binary data shown on bottom towards left: 01100010 01100001 01101100 01110101 01100111 What is that data? Interpreted as ASCII data in binary, it's: balug references/excerpts: http://www.balug.org/images/balug/logo.gif $ perl -e 'print(pack(q(B*),join(q(),qw( > 01100010 01100001 01101100 01110101 01100111 > ))),"\n");' balug $
