New server is live

April 13, 2017 By JimK Leave a Comment

If you’re reading this, you have made it to the new server that’s hosting this site. I’m still with Media Temple, but the old server hardware had reached end of life. Now I’m on spiffy new all-SSD machinery with an OS that will be supported until 2024. The Media Temple folks have made the transition pretty easy so far, but there may be glitches. Please report any problems using the contact form.

When the dust settles, I’ll port over comments from the old server that arrived too late for bulk migration.

Thanks,

Jim
