Hi all
I'm happy to inform you that the new servers arrived in amsterdam. So we will soon have: a new place for user home directories, a replacement for zedler (s2 database), a second login server, and an extra toolserver for OpenStreetMap stuff.
It will be a while until all is installed and set up. Full functionality is expected to be available after the next regular maintenance window, july 6th. Some parts may become available earlier, but we are out of room in our rack, so we can't set up everything before the new rack is ready.

Wheeee!
Will zedler’s replacement be named “zedler” as well? (No, I use the aliases, but some people perhaps still don’t…)

No it won't, and people who don't use the alias will learn the hard way what aliases are for.
Using the same name for the new box would be confusing and cause more harm than it would do good.
