Yes, but by now you probably know why we were down. That national news thing. http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/04/09/2044205 The big fiber cut everyone heard about. Over 500 individual lines. $250k reward. Lawsuits. Force majeure and terrorism clauses in contracts being triggered. Yeah, that one. Making Chandler Hub and OSAF infrastructure resilient against issues of this magnitude is just not cost effective; it's a very hard problem to do for free and I don't think we want to charge. > Incidentally, is that ISC as in <https://www.isc.org/> or as in > <http://www.internetserver.com/>? Just curious. > (<http://kerneltrap.org/node/5070> mentions "ISC's colocation in PAIX Palo > Alto" so I guess that ISC here is Internet Systems Consortium.) Yes. Also ISC of BIND, dhcpd, and a variety of other super-important Internet services. They run one of the root name servers. We are not at PAIX, we are at their offices, a warehouse that's quite built-up for hosting a variety of their core services. But single-homed on a gigabit connection. -- Jared _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list unsubscribe here: http://lists.osafoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/chandler-users Chandler wiki: http://chandlerproject.org/wikihome
