Site Update - 25-June-2006

We have switched hosting providers. Previously, I was hosted by long-time Ignition Project member Bobd314. He no longer uses the server, so he decided that he’d use that money on something more important, like gas or food. So, now, we’re hosted by my current employer, Posima. This will hopefully change in September or so (I’m going to college, and I’ll use my static IP there to run a server). Anyway, there are a few slight changes I made during the switch:

The Ignition Project’s SVN repository is now located at http://svn.ignition-project.com/ instead of http://svn.ignition-project.com/repo/. Please switch all working copies to the new URL!
Bugzilla doesn’t work on the new server and I have no desire or intention on making it work. It was a dirty, awful hack to begin with, and on this server, I do not have permissions to do Perl magic (well, I do, but I can’t, because it may break some scripts that the web host depends on). I will likely be putting up Collaboa, a Rails-based ticketing system. In order to keep bug numbers sane, I will port over bugs manually (I have the database) and resolve them as needed.
If you were using the private SVN server on port 8080, please contact me, and I will give you new credentials and a new repository URL.
I still have not finished the new site. Sorry!

Also, for ignitionServer NG, I am down to the following language choices: Objective-C, C, possibly C++, and probably not D. If you have strong opinions for or against Objective-C or C, please let me know via e-mail!
