Hi folks,
The Geeknet crew will be observing the Martin Luther King Jr. National holiday this coming Monday 18 January 2009. We will of course respond to any urgent issues on our sites.
We will return to our usual duties on Tuesday, 19 January 2009.
Cheers!

There was an unplanned site database outage on 2010-01-09 from 14:30-15:30 UTC that would have affected the Sourceforge.net develop pages and site authentication. The database is fully online now and the site should be functional.
On 2009-01-06 from 21:00 – 22:00 UTC SourceForge.net staff will be performing maintenance on one of the database server systems that power the site. As a result, the SourceForge.net site will be unavailable or slow to respond during this time. Developer services such as Subversion, GIT, and Project Web will not be affected by this outage.
UPDATE: 2010-01-06 @ 21:25 UTC: Maintenance complete, thanks for bearing with us!
All Geek.Net sites experienced just over one hour of downtime 07:05-08:15 UTC today due to an unlikely outage of two mutually-redundant network components. The problem has been resolved and Network Operations is making changes to prevent such failures in the future.
The Statistics service is now caught up. We will be performing back-ranking of projects in the near future.

Hi all,
Geeknet will be observing the Christmas holiday next week. We will be closed from Wednesday December 23 (2009-12-23) through Friday December 25 (2009-12-25). In this time, we will be providing “holiday coverage”. We will be parking all non-urgent support issues that come in via our Trac facility. We will address these tickets on our return Monday, December 28 (2009-12-28).
We are also observing the New Years holiday and will be closed on Thursday December 31 (2009-12-31) and Friday January 1 (2010-01-01). Any non-urgent support tickets will be parked for attention on our return on Monday January 4 (2009-01-04).
While we are on holiday, we closely monitor the site and actively engage any issues broadly impacting the site.
We hope this year has been fruitful and productive for you all in your Open Source efforts. It has been a pleasure working and growing with this community all year. We wish you a safe and happy holiday and look forward to more growth and exciting OSS innovation.
Cheers!
Daniel Hinojosa for all of the Geeknet family.
Hi folks,
Earlier this week, we removed the community forums from the site. We strongly encourage folks to join our IRC channel on Freenode.net, #sourceforge, to continue the conversation in a community of other interested Open Source developers.
Best regards,
Daniel Hinojosa – Sr. Manager Support, SourceForge.net
The Service Operations Group has made some notable change to Mercurial on the site:
There will be some other minor changes coming in this area soon.
Cheers!

We’re still processing about 2 days worth of back-log on in the statistics system. This means that stats for the site for items like web hits and downloads will be delayed by 2 days. We expect stats to be fully caught up in about a week’s time, assuming the current rate of completion. We will post more information when it becomes available.
Thanks!

We have located and eliminated the root cause of the out of memory (OOM) errors we were receiving from our PostgreSQL server. Expecting this issue has finally been resolved. All systems (including stats) are running.
Stats is still catching up. Will make a separate post when that is completed.
Thanks!
