Since this = machine is hosted by ByteMark, and since we have no contact with them = anymore, there is no chance at restoration. As of 19:00 US/Central, I = was able to restore operations on a medium-sized VM I'm renting from = NetActuate[1]. It is less than half the capacity of the bare-metal = machine that died, so we're still not back to where we were. Scott Baker has procured some VMs from the Open Source Lab at Oregon = State University[2]. I am going to scale the app to those systems as = well in hope that the three VMs will handle the load we generate. My = guess for that is "probably". But, with ByteMark's servers now completely out, there are parts of the = site that simply do not function.=20 * Our CPAN/BackPAN mirror is gone. I'm working on requirements to see = how this can be fixed. * E-mailed test reports have been offline for a while, but now is gone = until a replacement can be made. * Large sections of the primary site are still unimplemented If anybody wants to make a large impact for a little work on some = Mojolicious sites, we can get things working. Until then, I'm doing what = I can with what I have.
