If anyone asks, please make it clear that the IP change was done for technical reasons. We had already deployed LVS on the Amsterdam cluster, before the ban started. We would have deployed it weeks ago on the Florida cluster but for lack of a suitable machine. It was just a matter of time before we did it in Seoul, it's a much better system than DNS round-robin.
While I've been careful in the past not to jeopardise petition attempts, I don't think we should go so far as to avoid changing our IPs, to stay within the very small set that the PRC blocked.
Yes, this is ay technically sound move, and should not be a factor in getting the block lifted.
