Hello all,
Starting tomorrow morning, I will essentially stop maintaining the
pool.ntp.org project. Ask Bjørn Hansen has stepped forward to pick up
the
pieces, and I wish him good luck and hope he can continue the project
successfully.
Thanks for your work. It is a worthwhile project.
At this moment, the project has 363 servers, with two servers in new
countries (Romania and Thailand) being the latest additions. The
timekeepers mailing list has 139 subscribers, the timekeepers-announce
list
256; several projects use pool.ntp.org as their default timeserver, I
know
of Debian, at least one of the free BSDs and Gentoo (I think there were
some more, but I forget.) It has been very interesting and fun, and a
big
thank you goes to all who helped (too many to name them all - you know
who
you are.)
Users of the pool.ntp.org servers don't need to do anything, people who
donated servers will not notice anything either, so the transition
should
really be easy.
Technical details: Starting immediately, the [EMAIL PROTECTED]
official contact address will be handled by Ask (I'll keep on getting
copies of the mail during the transition, but this should be a short
period.) The web pages and the mailing lists will stay on my server
right
now, Ask will migrate them over to a different site when it is
convenient
for him to do so. I will switch the DNS servers tomorrow morning (I'm
in
Europe, so fire up your timezone calculators...), so from then Ask has
full
control over the pool.ntp.org domain. My DNS server will be a
secondary,
and will allow zone transfers, so configuration on the current
secondaries
is not urgent - Ask will contact you and rearrange everything.
I'll, of course, stay around and am available for questions. I wish
Ask and
all others good luck with the project.
Greetings from Zürich
Adrian von Bidder
