[Nfb-web] Upcoming Changes

Dear NFBNET.ORG Webmasters:

This message is for anyone who is responsible for a web site housed 
on nfbnet.org.

For a variety of reasons, it is necessary for us to make some 
changes.  Primarily we will be moving everything to a VPS, virtual 
private server.  It will save us money and be easier to backup and 
restore, etc.  Unfortunately, this means that all sites hosted on 
nfbnet.org will have to be assigned a new DNS number.  So, those of 
you who are responsible for registering and maintaining your DNS will 
have to make a change.

We will try and arrange things so there is a minimum of time that 
your sites will be unavailable to you.  We also will try to minimize 
the downtime in total -- but it is likely there will be a few  hours, 
at least when new DNS information propagates.

I have not always been as diligent at record keeping as I could, plus 
there are changes that I don't always know about.  So, I need to 
update my info on all sites on nfbnet.org

So, if you are responsible for a site, please send me your name, 
e-mail address, site URL, and who is responsible for DNS, so I can 
make sure my records are accurate and up to date.  I won't move 
forward until I have made contact with someone from each site.

You can send to david.andrews at nfbnet.org

or post here and I will copy off.

Thanks!

Dave
