<div>Seam community,</div><div><br></div><div>On Friday, May 28th, we migrated the <a href="http://seamframework.org">seamframework.org</a> and <a href="http://in.relation.to">in.relation.to</a> applications and databases to a new server host (from <a href="http://incubus.de">incubus.de</a> in Germany to eApps.com in Atlanta, GA). There was an unexpected 24 hour period of downtime for <a href="http://seamframework.org">seamframework.org</a> because of a communication breakdown in getting the DNS entries updated. The <a href="http://in.relation.to">in.relation.to</a> site had a flawless transition in contrast.</div>
<div><br></div><div><div>The purpose of this migration was to bring the server under the ownership and funding of Red Hat. This move is separate from the possible migration of <a href="http://seamframework.org">seamframework.org</a> to <a href="http://jboss.org">jboss.org</a>, which is still being discussed and negotiated. Let's not reignite that topic in this thread.</div>
</div><div><br></div><div>Part of the complexity in this migration is that we were also consolidating the ownership of all the domain names for <a href="http://seamframework.org">seamframework.org</a> and <a href="http://in.relation.to">in.relation.to</a> (there are surprisingly a lot of them, and a lot of owners). Some of the ownership transfer is still in progress, but the IP addresses are now stable, so there should be no disruption throughout the rest of the transfer process.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I'd like to thank Christian for making the transfer of the application very easy. I'd also like to recognize the QE team (Jozef, Ondrej) for testing the migrated site, Lincoln for helping with server configuration, Rodney for provisioning the server, and both Pete and Rodney for staying on Red Hat IT to get the DNS records updated.</div>
