After some discussion in irc this seemed to be the consensus. Primarily
because we have less downtime on the peer1 servers than on telascience.
Keeping it off osgeo1 means that if we have osgeo1 downtime (like this morning)
we can still get to the wiki unless all of peer1 is down (this has been very
rare).

The downside is a mixture of backup, dev and live services on osgeo2.

In the interest of progress, if there is no negative feedback on this
motion by tomorrow morning, I'd like to let Martin proceed (so I'm
suggesting an accelerated vote).

If we go this way, I'd also like to setup download2.osgeo.org (a mirror
of download.osgeo.org) to operate off osgeo2. We already rsync the stuff
there, and it would mitigate occational downtime at telasciencew which
we would leave as the master.

Best regards,

I sent a migration plan (its not even worth the name) that should give us a smooth transition to Tyler, Till and Martin who will actually do it. Please don't forget to broadly announce when it is actually going to happen to avoid losing edits.

Regards, Arnulf.

So, how many responses do you/we need to accept this motion as being
agreed upon ? Personally I'd like to move the Wiki this sunday, so
agreement should probably happpen until saturday during "work hours".

Cheers,
  Martin.

Martin,

As far as I'm concerned it is passed. If you don't hear any contrary
opinions in the meantime, go ahead.

These days I sent an EMail to Till, asking him if he would manage to
pull a Wiki dump at sunday morning European time. I didn't recieve any
feedback on this - maybe Till is simply too busy right now - so I
expect the move _not_ to happen this sunday and I did _not_ start
preparations which would then have included for example adding a
respective deadline-note to the main Wiki page.

Probably we're going to make the move happen during this week.

Regards,
  Martin.
