+      <p>The &os; Cluster Administration Team consists of the people
+	responsible for administering the machines that the project
+	relies on for its distributed work and communications to be
+	synchronised.  In this quarter, the team has been extremely
+	busy with work both visible and invisible from outside of the
+	&os; infrastructure.</p>
+
+      <ul>
+	<li>Migrated reference machines used by &os; developers to the
+	  new machines purchased by the &os; Foundation at
+	  New York Internet</li>
+
+	<li>Separated email services (and single-point-of-failure
+	  cases) from the machine that has been handling this task for
+	  over 18 years, to new, single-purpose service
+	  installations</li>
+
+	<li>Reorganized the infrastructure, serving repositories
+	  hosted by <tt>svn.freebsd.org</tt> to GeoDNS-backed mirrors,
+	  all with a single, official SSL certificate</li>
+
+	<li>Increased multi-site redundancy for public and non-public
+	  services throughout, at present, eight world-wide geographic
+	  sites</li>
+      </ul>
+
+      <p>While an enormous amount of this work was volunteer-driven,
+	resources (time and hardware) were generously provided by the
+	&os; Foundation.</p>
