[FreeBSD-Ops-Announce] The FreeBSD.org bug database will be read-only or offline this weekend

[Peter Wemm]

Within the next few hours we will be freezing the project's gnats bug database 
to make way for a migration attempt to bugzilla.

We are setting aside the entire weekend for migration attempt and at various  
times the database will be either read-only or unavailable.  We will be  
queueing incoming bug related email for later processing.

There are extensive interconnections between the old gnats system and there  
are great many tendrils into other cluster systems.  We expect this to be  
bumpy but we will be doing our best to keep the chaos to a minimum.

There will be a followup once we've either committed or aborted.

[Footnote: once completed, the final gnats db will be archived on 
ftp.freebsd.org for archaeology purposes and the rsync collections removed.]
