Global IMC is now back up. The problem has been described by folks familiar with it as:
"Pure technical problems with network connectivity. Unfortunately this means our mail machine is out until it is fixed, which makes communication difficult. Please do pass along that this is not some sort of government shutdown or anything of the sort." |

here's another comment from sheri (the orgininal post was from micah):
***
as you know they are back up. yes our mailserver and main dns server was down - fstv. and our backup dns at riseup and blackcat in australia only were backup for 4 hours (a configuration issue). so micah got them back up at midnight and they went down again at 4 am.....things should be okay now. micah...says that now it is all okay.
we were talking just now about how to get the word out to folks when things do go down. hopefully when we have our mailserver elsewhere it won't be tied so intimately to the main site/stallman and primary dns. that will be good. but we do need some contingency plans...a phone tree for all imcs, regional or national/international? something. our contact database would be helpful for this.

any ideas/comments are welcome. |
