We’ve recently changed the IP4 address of common-lisp.net. Is this change intended to be permanent?

And I had hoped to do this quietly without interrupting any services or anybody noticing by overlapping the IPs for several days! :-/
Short answer: Yes.
Long answer: To be able to run a copy of the VM for testing purposes (think: gitlab, mailing list policies, etc), I needed another public IP, which my upstream provider could only provide by providing a subnet instead of single addresses. So, now the testing VM and the production VM both sit on the same subnet and I'm not expecting any IP changes anymore (at least not in the forseeable future).
