Dear All:
As you all know, Rootsweb is under a major reconstruction
and upgrading program. New servers are being installed etc.
From time to time, there are problems accessing various parts
of
the sites. Here is the latest information from Tim Pierce as
of last night. It looks like another week or so to finally get it all
done. The lists that he refers to is primarily the mailing lists
but also some of the search engines etc.
Should be faster, better etc when it's all done.
There are more details posted on the Rootsweb home page.
Best Regards
John A Hansen
List Admin

I can only speak first-hand for the mail-related systems. The
following machines have been moved to new hardware in the new
facility:
mail.rootsweb.com
pml.rootsweb.com
lists2.rootsweb.com
lists3.rootsweb.com
lists7.rootsweb.com
Still to go:
lists5.rootsweb.com
archiver.rootsweb.com
listsearches.rootsweb.com
These will get done next week, hopefully to finish by the middle of
the week.
Randy has been working feverishly on the other machines. I know that
www.rootsweb.com has been moved, am pretty sure that homepages is done
and that freepages is in process, but I don't know their status.
