Hi!

This is a notification that multiple Gentoo services (bugzilla, forums,
wiki) will be moving and temporarily offline possibly until sometime
Saturday 2023/04/01.

We're aiming to keep the interruption much shorter, but the backup plan
is a 3-4 day outage. Forums may have the longest outage, due to the age
of the codebase.

For the duration, the sites will be covered by maintenance page that
serves only 503 errors.
https://infra-outage-info.gentoo.org/

Updates will be posted on https://infra-status.gentoo.org/

Why? A sponsor is decommissioning the physical hosting behind these
services. 

On behalf of Infra, I'd extend a thanks to that long-time sponsor:
Gossamer Threads, now part of Carbon60 [1], have hosted multiple Gentoo
services continuously since July 2009.

They are also donating some of the old hardware to Gentoo, and we hope
to be able to repurpose some of it.

Interested in Donating [2] to or Sponsoring Gentoo? [3][4]
