Hi,
It's been announced that Debian Buster will be released in the beginning of
July. While there's no immediate hurry to upgrade, there's definitely one
good reason to start working on an upgrade: Python 2 will be completely
decommissioned in 2020 and our mailing list infrastructure runs on Mailman
2 which runs on Python 2.
Debian Buster includes the new Mailman (Mailman 3) -- which runs on Python
3. Mailman 3 isn't just an upgrade to Python3, but a complete
re-architected Mailman. Mailman consists of 4 independent applications in
version 3. One of those is the mailing list archive manager.
Since we'll need to migrate our old mailing list archives to this new
infrastructure (and preferably keep the URLs stable), the migration may be
quite a bit of work to prepare. So, I'm looking for people who can help
out: find out which *exact* steps we have to go through to get minimal
downtime on an upgrade and get back to a stably running system on return.
Comments? Volunteers? Proposals?

Bye,

I pushed a change to cmucl-site, and the runner for it apparently hung
because it didn't finish the setup after an hour.
Perhaps it's just me, but in case it's not, could someone take a look?
Thanks!

The user ‘idimitriou' is having problems creating new projects, which I am able to replicate via impersonating the user in the Gitlab web interface.

I notice that the admin dashboard displays GitLab 12.0.2 (1a9fd38a4ca) with “update asap” in red. Perhaps upgrading will make this issue go away?

Hi,
Are the sites down for others as well, or just for me? (I'm accessing
from China, through a VPN... maybe I should also try without the VPN as I
don't expect these sites should be blocked by the Great Firewall...)

Hello, guys!
When I try to sign in using my github account (
https://github.com/svetlyak40wt)
it says it is blocked.
Could you unblock it please?

Can we get aclocal and the other tools above installed?
I'm updating cmucl's site to use the latest dev version of texinfo (6.6dev)
to get better support for multi-level indices. So I'm building 6.6dev
locally in gitlab CI and therefore need all the autotools to build it.
I guess the alternative is to make 6.6dev available somewhere on c-l.net,
but that's a bit of a burden to have available on c-l.net. Hence, I"m
building it myself for CI.

Hi, I just changed phones and installed Google Authenticator on the new
phone, and migrated my Google code to the new authenticator.
But my common-lisp.net code (and some other ones e.g. Cloudflare) are
still on the old phone.
But the common-lisp.net one (on the old phone) doesn't seem to work
anymore.
Is there a way to migrate this to a new phone without logging in (I doubt
it).
If not, can the admin temporarily disable my 2FA so I can get in and set it
up on the new phone?

In, for example,
https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/cmucl/cmucl-site/-/jobs/1316, there's a
note on the right that the job artifacts expire in 3 mo. There's also
three buttons for keep, download, and browse.
So, if I run CI for the latest changes and don't touch the site again
for 3 mo, all the generated pages will disappear? That would be bad
if the webpages disappeared after 3 mo. It would also be annoying if
I had to make changes at least once every 3 mo to keep the site up.
How does this work? Googling for this didn't actually answer this
question, except to say I can set expiry_in to some large value to
preserve the artifacts.

I updated cmucl-site for the first time in a while, and I can't seem to
deploy any more. Generating the pages works, but I get a permissions error
now: https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/cmucl/cmucl-site/pipelines/762
Can someone take a look?
