Hello all -

We’re migrating RubyForge to a new server this evening. This will mean  
a spot of downtime for various things, but hopefully not too much.  
Thanks to Tim B. for getting us a nice new server!

Yours,

Tom

The migration is more or less complete; if you notice anything awry,  
please post a support req here:

Thanks Tom for the great work.

Is CVS already online? I couldn’t grab a copy for ruby-informix. I’m  
the developer (santana is my username). Transcript follows:

$ echo $CVS\_RSH  
/usr/bin/ssh  
$ cvs -d :ext:removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid:/var/cvs/ruby-informix checkout  
ruby-informix  
removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid’s password:  
cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `This is a restricted account.' from cvs server cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `You cannot execute  
anything here.’ from cvs server  
cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `Goodbye.’ from cvs server  
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages  
if any)
