Hello,
To confirm, are you suggesting we edit our scripts to read this file
and put in "sorry, server is down" if that is the case?
This only applies to tools using sql too, right?
I am personally against an enforcable rule (but would definately
follow it if imposed).
Thanks,
Sean

Hello all,
perhaps anybody (someone?) didn't notice it: The msql-db on zedler (=S2 and
userdatabases) crashed. The restore is in progress, please wait a bit.
We get many questions from tool-user "The tool xyz does not work" or "Why
is
the toolserver defect/crashed/explode?".
To inform our tool-user better in future, I created some files:
http://tools.wikimedia.de/status_s1 (same for s2 and s3).
I think that ERRO and DOWN should be compulsive for tools, INFO and WARN is
optionally.
I plan to update the rules for this at October 1, so please use the time to
update your tools. Suggestion are of corse very welcome :).
Sincerly,
DaB.
