10 Overlays have now been migrated to the new hardware, just in time too,
11 the hard drive on the old box started showing signs of failure.

13 Further notes:
14 --------------
15 1. SSL for commits:
16 As originally discussed way back in January when I laid out the big
17 infra projects for the year, commits must now be performed via HTTPS.
18 Non-SSL commits are no longer possible (partially for security, but also
19 to aid the Squid caching).

21 It's very easy to switch your repository:
22 # repo=$(svn info |awk '/^Repository Root:/{print $3}')
23 # svn sw --relocate ${repo} ${repo/http:/https:}
24
25 2. SSL certificates:
26 The same old overlays.gentoo.org SSL certificate is still being used for
27 the moment. We will be switching the site to a CACert certificate, just
28 like forums and bugzie later this week.
