I will be making infrequent updates to KernelTrap for the next 3-4 weeks. During that time, the infrastructure behind KernelTrap will be makeing a few changes. For the past many months, we've been running on a server borrowed from Oregon State University's Open Source Lab [story]. Shortly, we will be migrating back to our own server, still hosted in the wonderful Open Source Lab. The migration itself should be transparent. Beyond that, I will soon be making efforts to upgrade the site to the upcoming Drupal 4.7, bringing in many improvements over the currently running Drupal 4.5 release. Finally, I'll be taking advantage of this time to pursue long standing efforts to improve the functionality and layout of the site.

Though there will be only infrequent updates to the front page, don't forget that the KernelTrap forums remain active, including special Linux, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, DragonFlyBSD, NetBSD, GNU/Hurd and hardware forums. As time permits, features will occasionally be posted to the front page, including an interview that I'm currently working on. By mid-November, I expect to be able to begin making more regular updates again.

Update: I'll be away through December 8'th, after which I'll finally resume posting updates to the front page.

For the next few weeks, most of my effort will be going towards finishing up the remodeling of my house, which I plan to put on the market by November 1'st. Once the house sells, the plan is to buy a sailboat. I'm gearing up to continue to be productive from the boat, but it all takes a lot of effort and time, hence the infrequent updates to KernelTrap.

If you experience any problems during the updates and changes to the site over the next few weeks, please post a comment here or drop me an email at jeremy@kerneltrap.org.
