Hi all!
Just a little reminder:
Your toolserver accounts will expire on January 6th, 2014. You can renew
it with acctrenew as usual.
If you had an expired account and you want to come back and collect your
data: Your account has been reactivated until that date. You can login
to nightshade and use the script "byebye" to collect your stuff. It will
create a new directory inside your home directory called FarewellBundle.
This directory contains tarballs of almost everything you had on the
toolserver. The only thing you have to take care of separately is your
stuff in /mnt/user-store. Please download the data you don't need on the
toolserver any longer!
If you don't need your account any longer you can delete it using the
script "burnbridges". It will delete everything but your
~/public_html/.htaccess files in case you have a redirect to Tool Labs.
For us, it would be very helpful if you deleted you data yourselves.
If you find some time before January 6th, please consider migrating your
tools to Tool Labs [1][2], as the toolserver will be discontinued in mid
2014. If you hit barriers that prevent you from migrating, please create
bugs in Bugzilla [3]! We can meet in an IRC office hour in January to
discuss them. The office hour will be announced separately at the
beginning of January.
Best, Silke
