Dear developers, We are hereby announcing that udd-mirror.debian.net, after 7 years of being hosted by XVM at MIT (http://xvm.mit.edu/), now moved to fosshost (https://fosshost.org/). We wish to thank MIT for hosting this service for so long, as well as thank fosshost in advance for the many years to come! You can read a bit of history regarding udd-mirror on Asheesh's blogpost: https://announce.asheesh.org/2020/11/the-ultimate-debian-database-and-why-i-co-host-a-public-mirror-of-it/ With this occasion, we are also formally deprecating the old address public-udd-mirror.xvm.mit.edu in favour of the "new" udd-mirror.debian.net that has been available for more than three years. Please consider updating your scripts that connect to udd-mirror to use the new address, as the old one will be phased out in the future (no sooner than one more year at least). In this move, we also changed the deployment method, storing the whole database in docker. Even though we don't foresee any problem for the users, please do report any unexpected errors you might see. Feel free to use the GitHub project to open tickets or send pull requests: https://github.com/paulproteus/public-udd-mirror On the other hand, this new host is much more performant than the old one, and as such you should see a huge speed improvement when you run your queries :) Hoping to still be of service, Asheesh Laroia Mattia Rizzolo -- regards, Mattia Rizzolo GPG Key: 66AE 2B4A FCCF 3F52 DA18 4D18 4B04 3FCD B944 4540 .''`.
