Last night, an extreme spam run caused TMDA to overflow the IETF server and as a result, we experienced an outage for approximately an hour and a half. Unfortunately, two mailing lists were damaged by this outage - the IETF Discussion list, and the SIP list. The databases have been rebuilt from recent backups; however, at your convenience, you should check your subscriptions to those lists. Fortunately, there is some good news. The TMDA replacement system, which has been under development since the first server outage, was installed yesterday. Testing is underway and, within the next day or so, the replacement system will be activated and TMDA will be removed. This should finally put the ongoing stability issues to rest. In addition, we are still moving forward with the split of web and email services on a multiple-server structure; we expect to switch over to the new setup right after IETF 72 in Dublin. Please feel free to contact me if you have any question or concerns.
