As was previously announced, and postponed, the main dev server will be 
going down for several hours on Sunday night in order to do some much 
overdue maintenance ... specifically, getting rid of the use of unionfs 
...

Due to the size of that vServer (~13Gig), this is going to take a fair bit 
of time to do ...

I will be shutting the vServer down around 20:00 AST.

Nothing will change as far as config files are concerned, or ppls 
accounts, or location of files, etc ... the procedure is fairly simple 
(although long) ... we create a new, fresh vServer and then copy over top 
of that all of the files that are specific to the old ...

The only problem(s) that may arise is that an application that is in use, 
that is installed on the old template, won't be installed on the new 
vServer ... majordomo stuff, I can easily/quickly test, but, for instance, 
I know Peter is running some docs related scripts that will need to be 
debugged ...

If someone could post a quick news announce on the web site for this, so 
that ppl will know, that would be great ... and I will post a message to 
pgsql-announce tomorrow night about it also.
