[jboss-dev] JBoss community domain name changes (Affects *.labs.jboss.com, *.forge.jboss.com, *.jboss.org services.)

[Tom Benninger]

All,

For the last year we have been using jboss.org domains, rather than the 
older labs.jboss.com and forge.jboss.com domains, as the primary site 
for JBoss community services. (https://svn.jboss.org instead of 
https://svn.labs.jboss.com, for example.)

On the Sunday the 13th we will be converting the web services on older 
labs and forge domains to be redirects to jboss.org. This is the first 
step in our plans to unify and simplify access to JBoss community 
services. Later steps will include the migration of non web services and 
the eventual decommissioning of the forge and labs domains.

All services will be maintained, just at *.jboss.org, where they should 
already be accessible.

There are some caveats to this:

* Most SVN clients do not support redirection. If you are one of the 
handful of users still using svn.labs.jboss.com or other old svn URLS, 
you will need to update your clients after the change.

* The domain cms.labs.jboss.com will remain available for short period.

* Non-web services, which do not support redirection will not be 
affected at this time.

These changes represent phase one of our effort to clean up domains and 
simplify and unify our community service management. As noted above, 
further changes will be made in the future.

Thanks,
