[Bioperl-l] DNS changes for Bio*.org domains

[Peter Cock]

Hello all,

We are in the process of transferring the domain registrations and thus

DNS entries for bioperl.org, biojava.org, biopython.org and biosql.org from

NameCheap (managed by the Open Bioinformatics Foundation, OBF) to

Gandi (managed by the OBF's fiscal sponsor, SPI).

Hopefully there will be no disruption but that is possible, both to accessing

the websites (which have for some time been hosted on GitHub Pages),

and the mailman mailing lists when used via the project domain.

Note mailing lists like biop...@bioperl.org can also be used via the

bio...@mailman.open-bio.org or biop...@lists.open-bio.org forms.

Our main domain open-bio.org and the mailman server itself are NOT

being changed at this point. Nor is bioruby.org being changed.

Thank you,

Peter

Those DNS changes have gone through, and touch wood no side

effects. Thank you to the team at Software in the Public Interest (SPI),

For the moment the main open-bio.org domain will remain under

NameCheap since we're also using them for hosting the site.

Peter
