---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Mike Cooper <myth...@osuosl.org> Date: Thu, Jun 24, 2010 at 2:32 PM Subject: Re: planet.freedesktop.org To: Jon Phillips <j...@rejon.org> I upgrades all 3 sites to the new Venus planet code. I just copied the configs over from the old instances. I left the old code in the sample place, in case you need to go back and get something. The new stuff is in /var/www/$site/venus. A few sites in the configurations gave errors when they were updating, so I commented them out. You should probably go look at the *.ini files to see if you can bring back any of those sites.
