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
