Dear ibiblio users:


This notice is to inform you of our plans to go forward with our 
migration of *mysql.ibiblio.org* from the current server to our new 
one.  We are planning to do this on *Thursday, February 2, at 1:00 AM*.  
The procedure may take as long as 30 or 45 minutes, during which time 
mysql.ibiblio.org will be unavailable.  We ask for your patience during 
that time.

*
Note*:  no user interaction will be required.  The change should be 
entirely transparent on your end.  After the migration, requests sent to 
mysql.ibiblio.org will get routed to the new server, such that you will 
not need to alter the server address in any of your scripts.


On a side note, ibiblio would like to thank IBM for the new database 
server.  It's an xSeries 366, quad-Xeon, with 16 gigs of RAM.  We hope 
you'll notice the difference in speed.

Thanks!
