Howdy folks --

I'm about to move djangoproject.com (and subdomains) to a new server.
The short version of the changes:

DNS should update within the hour, but if it doesn't, you'll want to
put this in your /etc/hosts (or equivalent)::

    64.207.133.18 djangoproject.com
    64.207.133.18 www.djangoproject.com
    64.207.133.18 code.djangoproject.com
    64.207.133.30 media.djangoproject.com

If there are problems, please email me directly at
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Or find me in #django-sprint tonight or
tomorrow.

That's all you need to know, but if you're curious for more details, a
few follow.

So this was motivated by our discovery that djangoproject.com had
become our second-highest-trafficked site -- around 8 million hits a
month -- and had outgrown the two-years-past-EOL server we had it on.

So when a hosting provider offered us a free, beefy box to run the
site on, we were thrilled and took them up on it immediately.

You'll notice that I'm not saying which provider (though if you look
at DNS it should be pretty obvious). I'd like to explain at more
length why we're moving and properly thank the associated parties, so
please do me a favor and wait until the official announcement to ask
questions about the logistics of the move. I'll try to have that
announcement up shortly after the move is done. Watch the blog.

There are some really awesome things this move brings with it, but
I'll also keep those under my hat until the official announcement,
too.

Thanks for your understanding; I hope I don't fuck it up too badly :P

Jacob
