The linux-mips.org server machine was lately suffering from a number of issues, including resource problems. Imgtec / PRL thankfully stepped in sponsoring a beefy new server machine that's not going to break sweat under the the workload. The previous machine was hosted in Budapest, Hungary for a number of years on Imre Kaloz' openwrt.org server. The new machine is now hosted in Falkenstein near Regensburg in Germany. One notable change is that the new server system now supports IPv6 for all services. Please report any problems you may be experiencing. While the server itself appears to be stable the mailer daemons isn't always. Similarly the issues linux-mips.org was experiencing have corrupted files that were active around the time and among others those often were temp files or mail folders which may have resulted in the loss of some email. Last, not least a big thanks to Imre! Cheers, Ralf
