Hello all,

repo.jing.rocks will have a "summer maintenance" intermittently from 2024-09-15 00:00 UTC to 2024-09-23 15:00 UTC. This is to replace some drives and improve stability and robustness in general, so hopefully it will continue to serve the community for years. The maintenance window is long because I have a $dayjob and I need to pick the music to play when I work on servers.

Ideally you _should_ see no service interruption, but it may serve stale mirrors for a few hours at a time during the week. This is because I plan to remount the NFS backend readonly but point it to the backup storage, before the main storage server is shutdown. But as all sysadmins know sometimes sh*t happens because life is just a sh*tshow. So let's all be prepared, if you use repo.jing.rocks as your upstream.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

***
repo.jing.rocks is a mirror site that mirrors many free software projects and distros, 110 TB in total, namely debian, archlinux, fedora, ubuntu, devuan, trisquel, linux-libre, dragora, parabola, openbsd, etc. It is probably the largest mirror collection in Japan, also a T1 mirror of archlinux, using residential 10Gbps internet and 100% renewable energy.
