Migration Completed

On 9-Jan-2012, logins to Willers were disabled. On 11-May-2012, Willers was turned off. The admins are considering bringing it to the nearby shoting range.

We have finished migration from our old system (willers) to a new system, banjo. Banjo quadruples the CPU, doubles the memory, and doubles disk space. It is running FreeBSD 8.1 and updated versions of all related software (Apache, PHP, Perl, etc.).

That's it!
