As you can see, we are now back up again. We had a hard disk failure which was exacerbated by faulty RAID firmware. Putting a new disk into the array caused massive system corruption. We're back online now, running from backups that are less than 24 hours old. The RAID firmware has been updated and we've verified that this problem should not reoccur. Running from backups means that we've jumped back in time so if you've subscribed or unsubscribed from this list and now are either not getting or getting it, that's why. Also any package maintainers who released packages last Thursday (2005-02-03) or Wednesday (2005-02-02) should double check that their packages are still there. And now to bed. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
