The newsserver will be down for maintenance sunday may 29th. The service window is 1600-2200 CEST, but the actual downtime is expected to be 2 hours at max.
IRC back in business
The IRC server stopped responding Thursday. Unfortunately, the server could not come up on its own and we were unable to handle the problem at the time. The service has since been restored and is now running properly. Thank you for your patience and sorry for the problems.
Having troubles with IRC?
On March 4th we stopped accepting clients on the old IRC server on sunsite.dk. We can see that some clients still try to connect to the old server instead of the new one at irc.dotsrc.org. So please, use the new server which is accessible from Danish addresses and from the networks at the dormitories at Aalborg University.
Services up again
The servers were shutdown tonight due to over heating of the server room. All services are fully operational and up-to-date again. We're still working on tracing down the exact reasons for why the mirror server refused to come up again after the outage, so there might be another reboot needed in the near future. This time we're better prepared though, so that should only result in a few minutes of downtime.

Update from LinuxForum
We're just bringing you a small update from LinuxForum. Yesterday we stood by the HP stand all day, being very business like. The guy from HP was great fun, so was the magician HP had hired. We talked to a lot of potential sponsors, most seems to be interested, but we'll see when we follow up. We did however get a new server from the danish GratisDNS.dk , a free dns service.
