Starting at 4pm PST this Friday, the 8th of October, the host for the
libstdc++ web pages, mailing lists, and ftp server will be going
off-line. Services should return to normal by Sunday, and may be back
up before then. I'll try to get all the pending patches revies and into
CVS before this action takes place.

In particular:
(1) web pages, mailing lists, ftp, cvs, all of it will be down.  Mail sent
to a mailing list will just be queued up until the system comes back.

(2) People with SSH access to the CVS will probably be prompted by their
SSH client with a message like "I have never seen this host's key before.
Accept?"  A really security conscious person who was unaware of the
downtime might be concerned by this message, possibly thinking that
their access had been redirected or something.
